Description

Chicken, Spinach, and Mushroom Bake

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms

  • 3 cups fresh spinach

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • Optional garnish: chopped parsley or fresh basil

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Season chicken with salt and pepper.

  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear chicken 2 to 3 minutes per side until lightly browned. Transfer to a baking dish.

  3. In the same skillet, cook mushrooms until they release their juices and start to brown, 4 to 5 minutes.

  4. Add garlic and spinach. Cook just until spinach wilts.

  5. Stir in heavy cream, chicken broth, and Italian seasoning. Simmer 2 to 3 minutes.

  6. Pour the creamy spinach mushroom sauce over the chicken in the baking dish.

  7. Top with mozzarella and Parmesan.

  8. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until chicken is cooked through and cheese is melted and golden.

  9. Sprinkle with parsley or basil before serving to make it look like you really planned this meal out.
