Sunday Supper, Chicken Alfredo Bubble Up with Mushrooms and Spinach

the Painted Apron

3 years ago

Now that it’s September,

I’ve been dreaming of the comforting foods of Fall,

hearty soups, crock pot meals and casseroles

One of the recipes on my September bucket list,

Creamy Chicken Bake

was the inspiration for this easy and amazing one dish meal

I changed it up, using chicken thighs, fresh mushrooms, spinach

and Alfredo sauce instead of cream soups

Instead of serving this with rice or pasta

I added biscuits during the last part of cooking

You won’t believe how incredibly easy this is!

First, quickly saute the mushrooms over medium high heat

until golden

Add spinach and stir, until it wilts down

Put chicken into a baking dish that is large enough to hold chicken

with extra space around it for the biscuit pieces

Put mushrooms and spinach on top of chicken

Pour Alfredo sauce over all

Bake at 300 degrees for 1 hour

Cut biscuits into quarters

and submerge the pieces in the sauce around the chicken

[They are hard to see because

they are the same color as the sauce]

Sprinkle Parmesan cheese all over the top

Turn the oven up to 350 degrees,

put the dish back in the oven and cook for 25-30 more minutes

until biscuits are golden

Serve it up!

This serves 2-3 depending on appetites~

HHjr had 2 thighs and I had one so this was perfect for us

Increase ingredient amounts as needed for more servings

Serve with a salad for a complete meal
