Notes
Parts of this can be ahead of time. If you know you'll be in a rush before making this chicken, you can definitely make the spinach mixture beforehand. Just combine all the ingredients and cover and place in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking/cooking.
STORE leftovers in an airtight container in fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, place on a plate and microwave until heated through.
