Pro Kitchen Tips

- Use chicken breasts of similar size to ensure even cooking.
- Don’t overcook the chicken to keep it moist and tender.
- Let the chicken rest a few minutes after baking to lock in the juices.

Step 1

Lightly heat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While it warms up, pour some olive oil into a skillet over medium heat. Toss in the spinach and garlic, stirring occasionally, until the spinach wilts, which should take about 3 to 4 minutes. Once cooked, drain the mixture well in a sieve and press out any extra moisture. Transfer the spinach and garlic to a bowl, then mix in the artichoke hearts, mayo, Parmesan, and feta until everything’s nicely combined.

Step 2

Lay your chicken breasts in an ungreased 9x12-inch baking dish. Spread the spinach and artichoke mixture evenly over the chicken. Pop the dish into the oven and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese on top starts to turn golden.

Step 3

When it’s done, carefully pour off any liquid that’s collected in the pan. Move an oven rack closer to the heat source—about 6 inches away—and switch your oven to broil. Place the baking dish under the broiler for a few minutes, just until the cheese topping gets a bit more browned and bubbly. Keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn! Once it looks nice and golden, it’s ready to serve.

Serving Options To Try

Serve alongside a fresh green salad or roasted low-carb vegetables like asparagus or zucchini. A side of cauliflower rice also pairs well and keeps the meal keto-friendly while adding texture.

How To Store For Later

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the chicken moist and the topping creamy. Avoid freezing as the texture of the spinach and artichoke mixture may change.
