While the pan is heating cut your chicken breast into strips and season with Italian seasoning, thyme, black pepper, garlic powder, and juice from 1/2 of a lemon.
Once the pan is hot add the oil to the pan, then immediately add the chicken to the pan, arranging in an even layer. Cook on medium heat for 2 minutes, just enough to get a little color on that side of the chicken. After 2-3 minutes, flip the chicken strips over to the opposite side.
As soon as you flip the chicken over, add the red onions, cherry tomatoes, garlic cloves, and capers to the pan. Spreading these ingredients over top of the chicken and between the strips. Cover with a lid and cook for 4 minutes, reducing the heat to medium-low.
After 4 minutes, flip the chicken one last time, cover with a lid and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Until the chicken is fully cooked through. Check to ensure the chicken is fully cooked by cutting one of the large pieces in half and make sure there is no pink. If still pink, cook for another minute or two.If not pink, remove the chicken from the pan and set aside while you make a quick sauce. Leaving all other ingredients in the pan.
Now add the butter and spinach to the pan with your tomatoes and onions. Stir everything together until the spinach has wilted and butter has melted.
Add the chicken back into the pan, cover with a lid, and cook for 1 more minute, just to heat the chicken back up some.
Season with red pepper flake and a little bit of salt. Serve and enjoy!
