Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp butter
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (14 oz) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
5 oz fresh spinach, roughly chopped
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Prep chicken: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Rub chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Sear chicken: In an oven-safe skillet, sear chicken over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
Make sauce: In same skillet, melt butter. Sauté garlic until fragrant (30 sec). Add spinach and artichokes; cook until spinach wilts.
Combine: Reduce heat to low. Stir in cream cheese, sour cream, mayo, Parmesan, and red pepper flakes until smooth.
Bake: Return chicken to skillet, nestling into sauce. Top with mozzarella. Bake 20-25 mins until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Broil (optional): Broil 2-3 mins for extra browning. Rest 5 mins before serving.
Notes
Shortcut: Use frozen chopped spinach (thawed and squeezed dry).
Lighter option: Substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream/mayo.
Slow cooker: Skip searing; cook on LOW 4-5 hours (add cheese last 30 mins).
Serve over pasta, rice, or with crusty bread to soak up sauce.
