Man, I am HERE for this meal. I’ve been making spinach chicken bake for a decade now and back in the day — and by “day” I mean, a loooong time ago, like ten years ago when Ford was this deliciously plump little baby — I thought it would be really fun to make a video with him showing off my skills. I wanted to prove it was possible to make dinner with a baby on my hip, so I filmed a video making my spinach chicken bake one-handed. It’s seriously that easy to make this spinach chicken bake.

Let’s start by sautéing the spinach and mushrooms in a little bit of olive oil until the spinach and mushrooms have wilted.

Add the diced tomatoes and allow to cook down until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Season with a bit of salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, season the chicken liberally with salt and black pepper and set in a single layer, in a baking dish that has been lightly greased. Top with two slices of provolone cheese on each.

Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes in a preheated 375 degree F oven or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of about 165 degrees F with a food thermometer.
