Creamy Smothered Chicken with Spinach and Potatoes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Smothered Chicken with Spinach and Potatoes.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give a baking dish a light coat of oil to prevent sticking.

2. Step 2

   Next, grab a large resealable plastic bag and mix together some flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, poultry seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

3. Step 3

   Toss in your chicken strips, seal the bag, and give it a good shake until the chicken is evenly coated.

4. Step 4

   Don’t forget to shake off any excess flour before moving on! In a skillet, heat up a splash of olive oil over medium-high heat.

5. Step 5

   Once it’s nice and hot, add the coated chicken strips and let them sizzle away for about 5 to 10 minutes, turning them until they’re beautifully browned on both sides.

6. Step 6

   Once they’re ready, transfer the chicken to your prepared baking dish.

7. Step 7

   Now, let’s turn our attention to the potatoes.

8. Step 8

   In the same skillet, toss in quartered potatoes and stir them occasionally until they’re almost tender, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes.

9. Step 9

   Once they’re just right, add them to the baking dish with the chicken.

10. Step 10

    Next, it’s time to add some flavor! In the skillet, drop in a bit of butter and sauté sliced mushrooms for about 2 minutes.

11. Step 11

    Then, add diced green onions and minced garlic, cooking until the garlic becomes fragrant and lightly golden, which should take around 3 minutes.

12. Step 12

    Now, stir in a can of cream of chicken soup, some chicken broth, and a splash of sherry wine.

13. Step 13

    Bring this delightful mixture to a boil and let it simmer until the sauce thickens, which will take about 5 minutes.

14. Step 14

    Don’t forget to add fresh spinach at the end, cooking just until it wilts, about 2 to 3 minutes.

15. Step 15

    Pour this luscious sauce over the chicken and potatoes in your baking dish, and then sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top.

16. Step 16

    Cover the dish with aluminum foil to keep all those flavors in.

17. Step 17

    Pop it into your preheated oven and let it bake for 20 minutes.

18. Step 18

    After that, carefully remove the foil and let it bake for another 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
