Can I use Chicken Thighs?

An important step in this chicken casserole recipe is to cut the chicken into bite sized pieces. Cooking the chicken breasts whole we found gave us a dry chicken, no one wants dry chicken.

You can also use chicken thighs in this easy chicken casserole recipe. I prefer it with chicken breasts but I have switched out the chicken breasts for chicken thighs when that is what I had on hand.

Fresh or Frozen Spinach?

For ease of what I had on hand, I used frozen spinach (still frozen) in this spinach chicken recipe, however, you can use fresh spinach instead if that is what you have on hand. Don’t cook it or anything, just toss it in like you would the frozen spinach, it will cook just fine in the oven. If you have full leaves, then I would suggest cutting them up before tossing them in the casserole.

What to Serve with this Chicken Casserole Recipe

One thing I like about this recipe is that there is meat and veggies already together. I like to serve it with a salad and then fresh bread. They love dipping the bread into the sauce that is leftover on their plates after eating.
