Greek Portobello Chicken

This is a really delicious dinner that I created the other night. I originally made it for Sweetnicks‘ ARF/5-A-Day Tuesdays but forgot to post it. So here it is today.

Greek Portobello Chicken
serves 4

1 recipe Greek Marinade (see below)
1 lb chicken
2 portobello caps, sliced
1 1/2 cups baby spinach (packed in)

Place marinade and chicken in a large bowl and let sit for 1-2 hours.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large casserole, place portobello slices, followed by spinach and feta. Top with chicken and pour marinade over everything.

Cover and cook for 30-40 minutes until juices are bubbling around outside of the casserole.
Remove lid and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes until chicken is cooked through.

Notes: Serve with wild rice and a salad for a balanced meal. If desired, a little salt can be added to the recipe.
