SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP CHICKEN

Spinach Artichoke Dip Chicken image

This recipe was the result of tweaking a simple spinach dip chicken recipe I stumbled across. It makes a surprisingly moist cooked chicken with a lot of flavor. I served this with just a salad but it would probably go well with rice.
