My son, who is an extremely picky eater, loves this quick and simple dish. It’s great for pot-luck dinners.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cubed boneless chicken breast
- 1 cup Italian salad dressing, or as needed
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon lemon pepper
- 1 (8 ounce) package fresh spinach
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup chopped fresh chives
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
Step 1
Place chicken in a bowl and pour in enough Italian salad dressing to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator, 2 to 3 hours.
Step 2
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 3
Drain and discard marinade from chicken and season chicken with garlic powder and lemon pepper. Transfer seasoned chicken to a casserole dish. Layer spinach over chicken.
Step 4
Mix cream cheese, chives, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Slowly pour chicken broth into cream cheese mixture, stirring until mixture is smooth; pour over chicken and spinach. Cover casserole dish with aluminum foil.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove foil and top chicken mixture with mozzarella cheese; cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes.
