Chicken with Pesto Gravy and Spinach

We saw Rachael Ray prepare a similar dish in less than seven minutes. See if you can beat her time!

cooked spinach
olive oil
2 pieces chicken breast
balsamic vinegar
butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
chicken stock or 1 chicken bouillon, dissolved in water
bottled pesto
lemon

1 Toss spinach with the olive oil; squeeze lemon over spinach. Set aside.

2 Pound the chicken (you can use the back of a frying pan) and marinate in the balsamic vinegar.

3 Heat butter in a pan.

4 Fry chicken in butter over medium heat until done. Transfer to plate.

5 Mix flour with leftover butter in pan over heat. Add chicken stock. Mix until gravy forms. Add pesto to the gravy.

6 Pour over chicken. Top with spinach. Dig in!
