Chicken Florentine

So I decided to try to make a new recipe that I found on Pinterest, Chicken Florentine. I have never cooked, nor do I think I have actually eaten Chicken Florentine, but the recipe sounded so good.


This is the picture and recipe, courtesy of picky-palate.com


2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 cup finely chopped white onion
1 clove minced garlic
4 cups baby spinach leaves
2 cups cooked shredded chicken breast
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 Cups Philadelphia Cooking Creme
1 pound bowtie pasta or other small noodle
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

2. Place oil in Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring for 1 minute. Stir in spinach leaves, cook, stirring until wilted about 2 minutes. Add chicken, salt, and pepper, and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Add cooking cream, stirring to combine.

3. Cook pasta according to package directions, drain and run under cold water to stop cooking. Add pasta to chicken mixture stirring to combine. Transfer to prepared baking dish and top with cheese. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until cheese is melted.Makes 8 servings


**After I cooked it I added garlic salt, however next time I will use one container of Original Philadelphia cooking creme and then one container of Savory Garlic flavored Philadelphia Cooking Creme (each container is about one full cup). 



It was a delicious and an easy recipe, I will be making this again for sure.
