Ingredients

  • Fresh Baby Spinach: A small bag of fresh spinach adds vibrant color and nutrients to this dish.
  • Pepper: A dash of pepper for seasoning and enhancing the flavors.
  • Herb and Garlic Seasoning: A dash of herb and garlic seasoning brings an aromatic depth to the dish.
  • Shredded Mozzarella Cheese: 8 oz of shredded mozzarella adds a gooey, cheesy topping.
  • Thin-Sliced Chicken Breasts: 6 thin slices of chicken breasts form the hearty base of the dish.
  • Green Onion Cream Cheese: 1 container of green onion-flavored cream cheese gives a rich, tangy flavor.
  • Olive Oil: 1/4 cup of olive oil helps to bind the ingredients and keep them moist.
  • Chicken Broth: 1/2 cup of chicken broth enhances the flavor and creates a savory sauce.
  • Sliced Mushrooms: A large package of sliced mushrooms adds texture and earthy flavor.

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chicken: In a 9×13 pan, arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer. Top with spinach and mushrooms, then sprinkle with herb and garlic seasoning, and a dash of pepper.
  • Make the Sauce: Soften the cream cheese and whisk in olive oil and chicken broth. Pour the mixture evenly over the chicken, spinach, and mushrooms. Cover the pan with a piece of foil, but do not seal it completely.
  • Bake: Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 20-25 minutes, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Return to the oven and bake uncovered for another 10 minutes or until the cheese starts to brown.
  • Finish: Allow the dish to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • This dish is great for meal prep and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs like basil or parsley before serving.
  • You can substitute chicken breasts with chicken thighs for a juicier, richer flavor if preferred.
