Delicious creamy chicken and spinach casserole recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 10 oz frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 (10.75 oz) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, for topping

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Step 2: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Step 3: In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken, thawed spinach, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine.
  4. Step 4: Pour the chicken and spinach mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  5. Step 5: Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
  6. Step 6: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the casserole is heated through. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For best results, reheat individual portions in the microwave or oven until heated through, adding a splash of milk or cream if needed.
  • Serve this comforting casserole with a side of crusty bread or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
  • To prevent watery casserole, ensure the thawed spinach is thoroughly squeezed dry before mixing with other ingredients.
