BAKED CHICKEN WITH SPINACH RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with oil spray.
• In a large pot of salted water, cook pasta according to instructions until al dente (I like to under-cook it 3 or 4 minutes as it will cook more in the oven). Drain and return to pot.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, add olive oil and sauté garlic. Add chopped spinach, salt, pepper and crushed tomatoes. Season with basil, oregano, salt and pepper and cook 5 minutes.
• Add sauce to the pasta and combine. Add half of the mozzarella, Parmesan cheese and ricotta. Mix well then transfer to the baking pan.
• Pour the pasta mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Top with the remaining mozzarella and cover with foil.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until mozzarella is melted and the edges are lightly browned. Let it cool 5 minutes before serving.
