With the ingredients ready, follow these step-by-step instructions to create your Creamy Ricotta Chicken Pasta:

1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Prepare the Chicken: While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and let rest before slicing.
3. Sauté Garlic and Spinach: In the same skillet, lower the heat and add minced garlic, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the spinach and cook until wilted (if using fresh) or heated through (if using frozen).
4. Mix the Sauce: Add the ricotta cheese and chicken broth (or reserved pasta water) to the skillet, stirring until well combined and creamy. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper to taste.
5. Combine Pasta and Chicken: Toss the cooked pasta with the creamy sauce and sliced chicken, ensuring everything is well coated. Heat briefly to mix, then serve immediately.
