4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 package zesty Italian dressing mix (Good Seasons brand)
4 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup chicken stock
8 ounces cream cheese, cubed
5 ounces fresh spinach
2 teaspoons garlic powder
Black pepper, to taste
8 ounces shredded mozzarella

Steps:

Cook the onions and the mushrooms in the 2 tablespoons of butter and a drizzle of olive oil until tender. Remove from heat. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put the chicken stock and cream cheese in a bowl and microwave a minute or two to melt the cream cheese. Whisk the dressing mix, garlic powder, and black pepper into the cream cheese mixture until smooth. Stir in the tomatoes, artichokes, mushrooms, onions, and spinach. Place the chicken breasts into a casserole pan. Pour the cream cheese and veggie mixture over the chicken. Bake for around 30 minutes or until the chicken is done. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top and stick it under the broiler a few minutes to melt the cheese.
