This is essentially a delicious hot spinach artichoke dip with chicken baked right into it. It\u2019s your favorite app turned into dinner\u2014-and it\u2019s easy! Just dice boneless skinless chicken breast, arrange it in a baking dish, and top it with a rich and creamy mixture of softened cream cheese, garlic, Parmesan cheese, a dollop of mayonnaise, spinach, and artichoke hearts. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes and voila! Dinner is served.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chicken bakes up tender while the spinach and cream cheese mixture melts into a rich cream sauce that would be delicious over rice (or cauliflower rice to keep it low carb), pasta, or potatoes (or mashed cauliflower). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for Spinach Artichoke Baked Chicken<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once baked, the sauce surrounding the chicken will be a little thin. Don\u2019t worry! It will thicken as the dish cools, and regardless, it tastes great! The chicken and other ingredients will naturally release a bit of liquid as they cook, but the best way to prevent the sauce from being too watery<\/em> is to remove as much liquid as possible from the high-moisture content ingredients: the thawed spinach and the canned artichokes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To do this, use a kitchen towel or stack a few paper towels on top of one another, wrap them tightly around the spinach, and wring it out, discarding any excess liquid. Do the same thing for the artichoke hearts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make Ahead Baked Chicken<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is one of those baked chicken recipes that’s ideal for a hectic weeknight because you can make it ahead of time! To prep it in advance and bake it later, just follow the recipe instructions for assembling the dish and rather than baking right away, cover and refrigerate for up to a day before cooking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
