Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 10 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally.

Add the cubed chicken breasts and cook for another 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Stir in the grated parmesan, baby spinach, and chopped parsley. Cover the pot and let it rest for 3-5 minutes.
