Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped

1 cup cream cheese, softened

½ cup sour cream

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for a bit of heat)

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

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

    Prepare chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and onion powder on both sides.

      Sear the chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

        Make the creamy mixture: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Lower the heat and add in the cream cheese, sour cream, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Stir until the mixture is creamy and well combined.

          Add spinach and artichokes: Gently fold in the chopped spinach and artichokes into the creamy cheese mixture. If desired, mix in the red pepper flakes for a spicy kick. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Combine chicken and creamy mixture: Place the seared chicken breasts back into the skillet, spooning the creamy spinach and artichoke mixture evenly over each piece of chicken.

              Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

                Garnish and serve: Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
