Ingredients

• 2 chicken breasts (thin-cut or cutlets)
• 4 tablespoons spinach artichoke dip

Recipe Notes

• For easier cleanup, you can cover the bottom of the baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil. I oiled the pan with olive oil. 

• If you're cooking more than two chicken breasts, use a 13x9-inch baking pan.

• I used a spinach artichoke dip from Costco, but use your favorite brand.

• If you can't find thin-cut chicken breasts or chicken cutlets, simply slice regular chicken breasts in half lengthwise.

• You can add other seasonings to the chicken breasts like garlic powder, onion powder, parsley flakes or whatever seasoning you like.

• Try this chicken recipe with other types of dips!

Here's how to make it: 

1. Put the chicken breasts into an oiled baking dish. Season with salt and black pepper.
2. Spread 2 tablespoons of spinach artichoke dip on each chicken breast, spreading to cover the entire top.
3. Bake in a preheated 400-degree F oven for about 20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through (165 degrees F internal temperature) and dip is lightly browned.
