There’s nothing better than pulling a piping hot baking dish out of the oven that’s filled to the brim with a delicious, filling dinner to warm you up. One that’s got you covered regarding proteins, veggies and starches, so that all you have to do is put it on the table and scoop it onto your plate and you’re set. This baked chicken dish might at first seem simple, but don’t be so quick to judge; it’s chock-full of spinach and potatoes, and topped off with a decadently creamy, herbed garlic parmesan sauce that bumps the whole dish up several notches – and if you sneak a couple spoonfuls of the sauce while no one’s looking, no one will be the wiser!
