Description

A flavorful high-protein casserole combining succulent chicken, earthy spinach, and artichokes, topped with creamy cheeses.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While it’s heating, dice your chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Add the olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat, then toss in your chicken. Season with salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic. Sauté for around 5 to 7 minutes until cooked through.
  3. Stir in the chopped spinach and artichokes. Cook for a few more minutes until the spinach wilts. Mix in Greek yogurt, mozzarella, Parmesan, and chicken broth until creamy.
  4. Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, leveling it for even cooking.
  5. Bake in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For a vegetarian twist, substitute chicken with chickpeas or extra veggies. For vegan, replace with tofu and dairy-free alternatives.
