Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

6 slices Swiss cheese

1 cup mushrooms, sliced

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with olive oil.

In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel, then season each side with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 4-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender.

Add the chopped spinach to the skillet with the mushrooms and cook until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture over each chicken breast, then top with the sautéed mushrooms and spinach.

Place 1-2 slices of Swiss cheese on top of each chicken breast.

Arrange the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Once finished, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
