Description

A creamy, comforting chicken dish with a rich yogurt-Parmesan crust, fresh spinach, and garlic.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the chicken breasts dry and season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat with a thin layer of olive oil. Coat each chicken breast with the yogurt-Parmesan mixture and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until golden.
  4. Add spinach to the skillet and stir until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Transfer to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F / 74°C). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Serve warm over mashed cauliflower or quinoa and garnish with extra Parmesan or parsley.
