For a richer flavor, consider using a blend of Parmesan and Pecorino Romano cheese. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese will melt more smoothly than pre-shredded. Ensure the spinach is thoroughly drained to prevent a watery casserole. Feel free to substitute other herbs based on your preference, such as thyme or rosemary. If you want a deeper flavor, try browning the butter before adding the parmesan.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place chicken breasts on a parchment-lined baking sheet. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepBake in the preheated oven until just light pink, 15 to 20 minutes; they will not be fully cooked.
03
StepWhile the chicken is cooking, melt 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted. Add heavy cream, condensed soup, oregano, basil, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. (Cook time: 10 minutes)
04
StepArrange spinach over the bottom of a 9-inch square baking dish. Pour about 1 1/2 cups sauce over the spinach, then arrange chicken breasts over top. Cover with remaining sauce and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. (Assembly time: 5 minutes)
05
StepReturn to the oven and bake until bubbly and lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes. (Bake time: 20-25 minutes)
