Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Vegetables

4 cups cooked chicken (shredded or chopped)
9 ounce package frozen spinach (thawed and well drained)
14 ounces artichoke hearts (plain, chopped)

Dairy and Sauces

8 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature)
1 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2/3 cup sour cream
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise

Seasonings

3 cloves garlic (minced)
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Prepare the creamy base: Preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, heavy cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
Mix in the main ingredients: Add the shredded chicken, well-drained spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, and grated parmesan cheese to the creamy base. Mix everything well until fully combined, ensuring even distribution of all ingredients.
Assemble the casserole: Spray a 9″ x 13″ baking dish with nonstick spray. Pour the mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top to create a cheesy crust.
Bake the casserole: Place the dish in the oven and bake at 375°F for 20 minutes. Then, increase the oven temperature to 400°F and continue baking for another 5 minutes or until the cheese topping is golden brown and bubbly.
Cool and serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a few days or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

Ensure the frozen spinach is thoroughly thawed and well drained to avoid excess moisture in the casserole.
You can substitute mayonnaise with a homemade keto-friendly version or omit if preferred.
For extra flavor, add red pepper flakes or a dash of smoked paprika to the creamy mixture.
This casserole can be prepared in advance and baked just before serving.
Leftovers reheat well in the oven or microwave.
