Spinach and Mushroom Smothered Chicken Recipe

Reviewed on Apr. 28, 2013 by Robby1

WOW!! This is tasty!!! Instead of grilling the meat, I pan fried (covered) until nice and brown and cooked through. I then removed the chicken from pan and did the vegetables in the drippings until not quite done, returning the chicken to the pan, topping with the cheese until melted. I served the chicken with the spinach mixture on top. The chicken was very moist, the flavors are very good and the pecans add a very nice crunch and added flavor. Can't wait to make this dish again.

I have made this several times. We both love it. I usually add more rotisserie seasoning. Sometimes I don't use the spinich either but it always turns out great.

I have never made this, but I am going to try it but with NO cheese and in my crockpot. I do not have a grill.

This is a very nice recipe. When I made it, I added a chopped garlic clove and a little red crushed pepper. Next time I make I'm going to use pine nuts instead of pecans and substitute fontina cheese. The original recipe was delicious but thse changes simply reflect my personal taste.

I started to cook the chicken for something else and decided to make this. I pan fried the chicken in a non-stick pan sprayed with Pam and added rosemary-garlic seasoning to it and simmered it until almost done. Then I sauteed the fresh mushrooms, green onion, and fresh spinach in the same pan with a little olive oil until the mushrooms and spinach were tender. I added about a tablespoon of real bacon bits and I think that helped since I didn't have the rotisserie chicken seasoning. I have never seen it or heard of that seasoning until now. It was a fluke that I had all the ingredients, even the provolone cheese. I put the chicken back in the pan and covered it with the spinach and mushroom mixture and then the cheese. I put a lid over it and let the cheese melt. OMG it was so good. I live alone so I halved the recipe and one chicken breast was enough but I made enough for 2 meals. I think I need to make it again and invite some cute guy over for dinner! Any wine suggestions?

my husband thought this was a little bland the first night we tried it. When I made it again, I added garlic to the spinach/mushroom saute, and it was a huge hit!

This was a fast, delicious recipe!! I added a half jar of marinara sauce to the spinach and mushroom saute to give it a little bit more substance. Excellent!!

We loved this! I actually made it in my crockpot - just put frozed spinach (thawed and drained) on the bottom, then the chicken with the seasoning, and the the veggies and pecans, drizzld a little bit of olive oil over top and topped the chicken with cheese under the broiler for a minute.

YUMMY!!! My Husband and I loved this!!! I had a little trouble finding the Rotisserie Seasoning but with a little help from and employee I found it. McCormick Perfect Pinch is the brand I found. Maybe that will help those of you having difficulties finding the seasoning.

Made this on my lunch hour for my son who was leaving after a long weekend home, so you know it is a Quick Recipe, as was the side I made of Cranberry Couscous. I used Pappy's Seasoning on the chicken. Any seasoning blend with paprika will do. I usually have all these ingredients in my kitchen so it was a great find for me. I only substituted out the provolone for monterey jack. I used my 12" shallow round grill pan on the stove and covered it with a frying pan. No need for the broiler.

Have made this several times and we love it. If you are cooking it for a later time I would recomend that you drain the spinach after cooking it or else when you re-heat it becomes to watery.

Very tasty although I did not use the pecans, but substituted the pecans for slithered almonds

Surprising moist and juicy

This recipe was great. I had no problem finding the rotisserie spice. I used a flat grill pan on top of the stove to cook the chicken (the kind with the ribs down it). Still had a great flavor and gives the chicken the nice marks of grilling outdoors.

Used George Foreman grill(indoor grill). Also used Mrs. Dash garlic herb seasoning. This is easy--use seasonings you like best and cooking method you prefer--grill, bake saute. Loved the pecans with the mushrooms, onions and spinach.

My pet peeve is recipes that call for an odd-ball spice such as

Roisterer chicken spice- I will check out Macormicks bottle to see what's in it, then I will make up my mind as whether to make it or not.

Rotisserie seasoning can be purchased in the spices. It is made my McCormick. Katrina Wagner

This sounds like a tasty recipe, especially since it can be done in a pan instead of a grill. Would omitting the mushrooms ruin it? My husband won't touch mushrooms!

Should not the chicken recipe end with the mushroom/spinnach mixture being put underneath the blasnket of cheese?
