Print Recipe

A delicious and easy one-pan dinner featuring tender chicken breasts topped with a creamy, cheesy blend of spinach and artichoke hearts, baked until golden and bubbly.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup canned artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth.
  3. Stir in the chopped spinach, artichoke hearts, minced garlic, mozzarella, Parmesan, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
  4. Place chicken breasts in the baking dish and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  5. Spoon the spinach-artichoke mixture generously over each chicken breast.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the topping is bubbly and golden.
  7. Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before garnishing with fresh parsley and serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the sauce.
  • Drain the artichoke hearts well to prevent the topping from becoming too watery.
  • For a lower-carb option, serve with steamed broccoli or a fresh green salad.
  • Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure chicken is perfectly cooked and juicy.
