Chicken Florentine


I certainly don't claim to be a good photographer!!  In fact this is more delicious than it looks in this picture!!  Anyway, wanted to have a picture since I haven't been too good about pictures lately!  I wanted to try this recipe and now it is a family favorite!  Such great taste!!!  It would be great for company because it makes so much!! 

Chicken Florentine

5 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
2 (10 oz.) packages frozen spinach, thawed and drained completely
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
1 c. mayo
1 c. sour cream
2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. curry powder
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 c. dry white wine (can substitute with chicken broth)
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 c. bread crumbs
2 Tbsp. butter

In a bowl, combine soup, mayo, sour cream, cheese, lemon juice, curry powder, salt and pepper, and wine.  Stir together until combined.  Add shredded chicken and drained spinach.  Mix well.  Place mixture in greased 11x7 casserole dish.  Combine Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs.  Sprinkle over the top.  Dot with butter.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until bubbly. 

It made such a large amount for the two of us, so I put some of the meat mixture in a freezer bag with directions about the topping and baking.  When I am ready to cook it again, I will thaw completely before baking.

It would be great served with rice, but since The Dish Washer doesn't eat rice, we just ate it as is.  BORING!!
