Tips:

To make the chicken flavorful, marinate it in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
Use fresh spinach for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen spinach, thaw it and squeeze out all the excess water before adding it to the casserole.
Add some cooked mushrooms or zucchini to the casserole for extra vegetables.
If you don't have ricotta cheese, you can use a mixture of cottage cheese and Parmesan cheese.
To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it and then refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, remove it from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
Serve the casserole with a side salad or some roasted vegetables.
