chicken breast cut or pounded into 1/2-inch thick slices
1⁄4 teaspoon
each salt and pepper
1 package
(10 ounces) frozen spinach, thawed and drained or 4 cups fresh spinach leaves
3⁄4 cup
shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Pour ½ cup of the pasta sauce in a large baking dish. Sprinkle salt and pepper over chicken and add to the dish. Top with the remaining ½ cup of pasta sauce, spinach and mozzarella.
Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until chicken is no longer pink inside and cheese begins to turn brown. If you have a food thermometer, check in the thickest part of the chicken to be sure the temperature is at least 165 degrees F. If not, cover and return to heat.
This is tasty and delicious. It was very easy to put together and can be made with ground turkey or chicken, too. Its flavors are mild, but you can bump it up with a ¼ cup of parmesan!
