Low-Carb Chicken, Spinach, and Mushroom Oven Bake

This hearty and flavorful dish combines tender chicken breasts with fresh spinach, mushrooms, and a creamy sauce, all baked to perfection.

Ingredients:

6 thinly sliced chicken breasts
1 container (8 oz) green onion cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 large package sliced mushrooms
1 small bag fresh baby spinach
1 teaspoon herb and garlic seasoning
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions:

Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare Baking Dish:
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with a bit of olive oil or cooking spray.

Assemble Layers:
Place the chicken breasts in a single layer at the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Evenly distribute the fresh spinach and sliced mushrooms over the chicken.
Sprinkle the herb and garlic seasoning and black pepper over the vegetables.

Prepare Cream Sauce:
In a bowl, whisk together the softened green onion cream cheese, olive oil, and chicken broth until smooth and well combined.

Combine and Bake:
Pour the cream sauce evenly over the chicken and vegetable layers.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil, ensuring it’s not tightly sealed to allow steam to escape.
Bake for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.

Add Cheese:
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly browned.

Serve:
Allow the dish to cool for a few minutes before serving.

This low-carb oven bake is a comforting and satisfying meal, perfect for those following a low-carbohydrate diet.
