Provided by á-26577

Number Of Ingredients 21

CREAMED SPINACH:
1 large bag of spinach leaves
1/2 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons red onion, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
SAUTEED MUSHROOMS:
8 ounce package mushrooms, sliced
1/2 stick butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup white wine
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
CHICKEN:
4 to 5 boneless chicken breasts
8 to 10 slices Mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/8 inch slices
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon seasoned salt, like Lawry's
1 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Sprinkle the garlic powder, seasoned salt, and pepper on both sides of the chicken. Bake for 16 minutes. Meanwhile, make the creamed spinach. Over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet. Add in the onions and saute 2-3 minutes. Add in the spinach and garlic. It will shrink ridiculously. When it's cooked through, stir in the cream cheese and parmesan cheese. Continue cooking and stirring until the cream cheese is melted. Remove from heat. For the mushrooms, melt butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet. Put the mushrooms in and cook until browned all over. Don't season with salt until they are browned or they will never brown. Deglaze the pan with the wine. Add in the garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook until most of the wine is cooked out. Flip the chicken pieces over. Divide the spinach and mushrooms over the top of each breast. Lay two slices of cheese over each piece of chicken. Cook another 12-14 minutes or until cheese is browned and chicken is done.

Greek Chicken With Potatoes and Mushrooms image

A huge favorite at my house! You can use more oregano if desired. I add in a tablespoons of fresh garlic on top of the onions.

Provided by Kittencalrecipezazz

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 -10 chicken pieces
5 -7 large potatoes, peeled, then cut into four pieces lenghwise (I like to use Yukon gold or russets)
3 -5 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 cup chicken stock or 1 cup broth
3/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh minced garlic (or to taste)
2/3 cup fresh lemon juice (you can use a little less lemon juice)
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme (rubbed between your fingers to release the flavors)
1 lb button mushroom (or to taste, make certain that the mushrooms are small)

Steps:

  • Set oven to 400 degrees.
  • Sprinkle the onion slices in the bottom of a large roasting pan.
  • Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then brown the chicken in a large skillet on both sides for about 6 minutes on each side; place on top of the onion slices along with potatoes in the roasting pan.
  • Pour the chicken stock or broth around the browned chicken pieces.
  • Then sprinkle oregano all over in the roasting pan.
  • In a bowl mix together olive oil, garlic lemon juice and thyme.
  • Pour over and around the chicken, mixing together slightly with a wooden spoon to combine with the broth.
  • Add in the small button mushrooms around the chicken.
  • Cover and bake in a 400 degree oven for about 30 minutes.
  • Uncover, mix juices slighty and baste the chicken with a wooden spoon, then return to oven (uncovered) and bake for about 20 minutes more or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • *NOTE* if you find that the potatoes are done before the chicken, just remove to a bowl.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will help you stay organized and make the cooking process go more smoothly.
  • Use a Large Pan: When searing the chicken, use a large pan so that the chicken has plenty of room to brown. This will help prevent the chicken from steaming and will give it a nice crispy crust.
  • Season the Chicken Generously: Don't be afraid to season the chicken liberally with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken and make it more delicious.
  • Cook the Chicken Over Medium Heat: When searing the chicken, cook it over medium heat so that the chicken has time to cook through without burning.
  • Use a Variety of Vegetables: This recipe calls for spinach, potatoes, and mushrooms, but you can use any type of vegetables that you like. Some other good options include carrots, celery, and zucchini.
  • Don't Overcook the Vegetables: When cooking the vegetables, don't overcook them. You want them to be tender, but still have a little bit of crunch.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The chicken will be at its most tender and the vegetables will be at their most flavorful.

Conclusion:

This smothered chicken with spinach, potatoes, and mushrooms is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is seared until golden brown and then smothered in a creamy sauce made with spinach, potatoes, and mushrooms. The dish is served over rice or noodles and is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
