- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides, then place them in a greased baking dish.
- Spoon the creamy spinach and artichoke mixture generously over each chicken breast, ensuring they are well covered.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- For an extra bubbly top, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end, watching closely to prevent burning.
