Spinach Artichoke Chicken makes for a simple, delicious meal that everyone will love.
I made something I think you are going to simply love. This. Spinach Artichoke Chicken.
Oh my goodness gracious is it amazing! Think your favorite spinach artichoke dip all over the top of baked chicken.
Yeah, it really is out of this world.
There’s something so comforting about this spinach artichoke chicken that it has really become one of our favorite ways to eat chicken now. While the ingredients list doesn’t specify, I like to use lower fat ingredients for the topping such as part-skim mozzarella cheese, fat-free Greek yogurt, and a light mayonnaise. Of course, use what you prefer!
And luckily, it is one of the easiest things to make that you can think of!
You just place your chicken into a baking dish, then mix up your spinach artichoke topping and pour it on top. Bake it and then watch it disappear.
How simple is that?
The chicken turns out so flavorful and tender. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
It’s great to get kids to eat their vegetables, too.
Here’s the recipe for my Spinach Artichoke Chicken. It’s a keeper!

Just made this. I used a cut up chicken and baked 35 mins before adding sauce. Served with noodles that I topped with creamy vegetables and the sauce/fat from the bottom of the pan. Yummy! My husband loved it, and although he never complains, his stepmother is practically a gourmet cook, so there’s a very high standard. Lol. Next time I’ll add sliced mushrooms to the sauce. Thanks. This one is a keeper!
I used about 2.5 lbs. of chicken tenders. I would probably top with a little more cheese next time I make it. Would be easy to make the topping ahead of time, then assemble and bake near dinner time.
Veprery good reciepe. Except I tweeked mine a bit. I used boiled or rotersarie chicken and added red potatoes. super delicious. I aslo added a cup Of canola oil mayo and another cup of yogart and added some lemon juice. I also cooked the spinach in garlic and onion before mixing it together. So pleased and so glad I found Ur recipe. 🙂
So my family absolutely gobbled this up! My only question is what is the consistency of the sauce/covering supposed to be? When I mixed it all together there was definitely no pouring involved. I used a spatula to spread the topping. I thought it would have been a bit more pourable (is that a word? lol). Thoughts?
This was AWESOME! Did tweak some things as that is my nature when it comes to recipes…I used only 6 chicken breasts, 1 small container of greek yogurt (NO MAYO), added a can of tomotoes with green chillies, changed the shallots to a yellow onion and added some red pepper flakes to give it a little kick. Tossed it all into the crockpot on low for 7-8 hours and shredded it when it was done. DELICIOUS! Will be doing this one again!
This recipe had been printed and posted at my gym as a healthy recipe and when I keyed it in to Weight Watchers (Recipe Builder) it is actually not too bad…about 8 points on the current plan. It is really easy and delicious. I used small sized chicken breasts to control portions and light mayo. I also added more garlic than it called for because we love garlic. Everything else was followed as listed in the recipe. We served it over whole wheat spaghetti noodles. Delicious!
Thanks so much, Chris for your comment. I appreciate your updating about the Weight Watchers points, too! Great info!
Thanks,

Overall we loved it. Thought it needed a little something so I added a little lemon juice which I think was exactly what it needed. Will be making this again! Thank you for a great recipe!
Oh my gosh! This looks delicious. I’ll definitely try this.
Nice recipe. Thank you and Happy New Year!
Still wondering about how much chicken. Is it boneless or bone in? Is it whole breast or split breast? Does sound good. Thanks
Hi Pat,
I usually use 8 chicken breasts for this recipe. Sometimes, I’ve used bone in, but I generally prefer to use boneless.
Hope you enjoy it!
