JOY'S SUPER TASTY CHICKEN & SPINACH DELIGHT - CROCK-POT



Joy's Super Tasty Chicken & Spinach Delight - Crock-Pot image

I created this recipe because I wanted the ease of the crockpot AND wanted to use some spinach I had in the freezer. This recipe is great because you can use frozen ingredients!! I'm really proud of my creation because it's tasty, mostly healthy and everyone loved it! You can play around with the cheese toppings. I had planned to use Swiss, but used Monterey Jack instead because it was what I had on hand. I had also planned to use 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese, but only had 1/8 on hand, so that's what I used. I served the chicken whole, topped with spinach, mushrooms and cheese with a salad on the side.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will always give you the best flavor. If possible, try to use organic or locally sourced ingredients.
  • Season your chicken well: Don't be afraid to season your chicken liberally with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the chicken and make it more delicious.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from drying out. If you cook the chicken over high heat, it will brown too quickly on the outside and remain raw on the inside.
  • Use a meat thermometer: The best way to ensure that your chicken is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken and cook until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Chicken Delight is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this recipe is perfect for busy weeknights. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give Chicken Delight a try. You won't be disappointed!
