Description

A delicious and creamy dish featuring chicken breasts topped with a spinach and artichoke mixture, baked to perfection.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup artichoke hearts, chopped (canned or jarred)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned.
  4. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream, chopped spinach, artichoke hearts, and half of the shredded mozzarella until smooth.
  5. Place the seared chicken in a baking dish and spread the creamy mixture over the top. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella on top.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and cheese is bubbly and golden.
  7. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • Make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
  • This dish pairs well with a side of rice or a fresh salad.
  • You can use frozen spinach, just be sure to thaw and drain it before using.
