Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C)
In a large bowl, toss the cubed chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until well coated
Heat the butter in a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until lightly browned. Remove the chicken and set aside
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened. Add the spinach and stir until wilted

Stir in Parmesan and mozzarella until combined. Adjust seasonings as needed
Return the seared chicken to the skillet, stirring to coat with sauce. Top with extra cheese and bake for 18-22 minutes until cooked through and bubbly
