Description
A quick and comforting dish that packs a lot of flavor and muscle-building protein, featuring shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, spinach, and cherry tomatoes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup shredded cheese (e.g., mozzarella or cheddar)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for greasing
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a medium baking dish with a little olive oil so the bake does not stick.
- Combine the shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, chopped spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Stir until the ingredients are evenly mixed and coated.
- Spread the chicken mixture evenly into the greased baking dish. Sprinkle the shredded cheese in an even layer on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden and the filling is hot throughout. Let the dish cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Use leftover rotisserie or poached chicken to save time. For a crisp top, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end—watch closely to avoid burning.
