Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken, leftover roasted chicken, or poached breasts)
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped (baby spinach works great; substitute: frozen spinach, thawed and well-drained)
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (white or cremini; sauté briefly for less moisture)
  • 1 cup cream of chicken soup (store-bought or homemade; substitute: cream of mushroom or a simple white sauce)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (use part-skim for a lighter version or provolone for creamier melt)
Seasonings
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch or similar baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, chopped spinach, sliced mushrooms, and cream of chicken soup.
  3. Season the mixture with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and turns light golden.
  7. Let the bake rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.

Notes

If you want more body, stir in 1 cup cooked rice, quinoa, or small pasta before baking. For extra richness, fold in 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt. This is a forgiving recipe; quantities and add-ins can be adjusted without breaking the dish.
