Healthier Chicken Florentine and Crispy Spicy Brown Mustard Chicken

So, I cooked dinner for Justin and his mom on Tuesday night.  Since i was already in the kitchen I decided to whip of two chicken dishes, so we could have extras already prepared.  I normally like to take pictures as I go but since i had two dishes going I didn't have much time.

Healthier Chicken Florentine:
Ingredients:
-4 chicken breast
-1 cup almond flour
-big bag fresh spinach
-1/2 cup dry white wine
-1/4 cup almond milk
-tsp gluten free thickening agent
-1/2 cup parmesan cheese
-3 tsp olive oil
-cumin
-paprika
-salt
-pepper
-onion and her seasoning
-garlic powder
-1/2 tsp fresh diced garlic(I buy it in the jar);)
-1/2 lemon squeezed
1. season chicken on both sides equally, coat chicken in almond flour
2. get pan hot with olive oil cooking.
3. sear both sides on high to get a good crisp, about 2 minutes(will not be cooked through) take out of pan and set aside.
4. deglaze pan with white wine and scrape all the bits and pieces off, add the spinach and fresh garlic and lemon juice, saute until wilted
5. sat chicken breast on top, top with parmesan cheese and pour in milk and thickening agent, cover and cook for about 10-15 minutes on low, or until chicken is done.

Sadly, I dont have a picture of the crispy honey mustard chicken but it was so good!
