Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast cubed
  • 2 cups parmesan cheese
  • 10 oz frozen chopped spinach thawed and drained
  • 14 oz canned artichoke hearts drained and chopped

Cheese Mixture

  • 2/3 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp garlic minced

Topping

  • 1 cup gluten free corn flakes crushed to a crumb mixture
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Spread the cubed chicken evenly across the bottom of a greased baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, thawed spinach, and chopped artichoke hearts.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the sour cream, cream cheese, mayonnaise, and minced garlic until smooth. Fold this mixture into the spinach and artichoke mixture.
  • Spread the spinach artichoke cheese mixture evenly over the cubed chicken in the baking dish.
  • Crush the gluten-free corn flakes to a fine crumb texture. Mix with the melted butter and sprinkle evenly over the spinach artichoke mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden and crisp.
  • Let the dish cool for 5 minutes before serving. Pair it with a side salad or gluten-free bread for a complete meal.

Notes

  • Drain the Spinach Well
    Ensure the spinach is thoroughly drained to avoid excess moisture, which can make the dish watery. Press it with a paper towel if needed.
  • Customize the Topping
    Don’t have gluten-free corn flakes? Substitute with gluten-free bread crumbs or crushed gluten-free crackers for a similar crunch.
  • Make it Spicy
    Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the cheese mixture for a little heat.
  • Meal Prep Friendly
    This dish reheats beautifully, making it ideal for meal prepping. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
