SEAR THE CHICKEN
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the butter and once fully melted, add the minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent, about 1-2 minutes.

TO MAKE THE CREAMY TUSCAN 'MARRY ME' SAUCE
In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil until heated.
Add in 1-2 Tbsps tuscan blend seasonings and salt and stir until well combined. Add in the tomato paste, stirring until combined.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and slowly add in the heavy cream, chicken stock, lemon juice, and white wine, stirring until combined. Let it slightly bubble for 1-2 minutes and then add in the grated parmesan, whisking until fully melted and sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
Add in the chopped kale and tomatoes, stirring until combined and return the chicken breasts. Let everything simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Stir the sauce occasionally and spoon it unto the chicken breasts as they continue to cook.
Remove from heat once done.
To serve, enjoy the chicken with your favorite side. Garnish with a bit of grated parmesan, if desired.
