6 servings

  • 2 cups cubed boneless chicken breast
  • 1 cup Italian salad dressing, or as needed
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 0.25 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

Instructions

  • Place chicken into a bowl and pour in enough Italian salad dressing to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade. Season chicken with garlic powder and lemon-pepper seasoning. Transfer to a casserole dish and layer spinach over top.
  • Mix cream cheese, chives, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Slowly pour in chicken broth, stirring until mixture is smooth; pour over chicken and spinach. Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and sprinkle mozzarella cheese over chicken mixture. Continue to cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes.
