Swim season is here and the boys are having so much fun! It’s quite a time commitment but so worth it. The boys get such great exercise and they just LOVE being in the pool.
It is an absolute delight watching Reece and Bryce swim their little hearts out night after night. And let me tell you, when they get home from those practices – they are hungry!
We have practice every evening from 6 p.m.-7 p.m., but starting tomorrow, practice gets moved to 5 p.m. – 6p.m. As you can imagine, this makes dinner time a tad bit tricky.
While I love using my slow cooker on busy nights like these, I’m not always so prepared 🙂 It’s then that I turn to quick, delicious meals like this 20 Minute Skillet Chicken and Spinach Parmesan.
It’s packed full of protein and I can get it on the table by the time they finish showering and changing. Mission accomplished.
Eating dinner together is super important to our family. No matter how crazy busy our schedules are, we can always count on mealtimes to bring us together to relax and enjoy good food and excellent company.

Instructions
- Season chicken with salt and pepper.

- Coat the chicken with the bread crumb mixture pressing gently to adhere.
- Heat 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

- Remove chicken from skillet and pour half of the pasta sauce onto the bottom of the skillet.
- Gently lay the chicken on top.
- Top each piece of chicken with a couple tablespoons of sauce, 1/4 cup chopped spinach, and two tablespoons of mozzarella. Just spoon and sprinkle till it looks right 🙂

I made this for my family tonight (10/7/2019). The only change I made was I made my own sauce. I have to watch my salt intake and jar sauces are too much. I used unsalted Tomato Sauce and Blended some diced tomatoes with basil & garlic. It was so good! My family scarfed this down and declared it as a keeper!

Awesome! We make this a couple times a month and LOVE it!
Mary Glazer says
How can I adjust this recipe if my pan can’t go in the broiler?
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
Just don’t broil it. Place a lid on to melt the cheese.
Stephanie says
I just wanted to say that I love this recipe-thank you so much for sharing! Even my incredibly picky sister will eat it (admittedly I don’t put spinach on her portion) and I’m about to make it for the fifth time already tonight!
Stephanie says
Thank you for the great and easy recipe! My incredibly picky sister even eats this and requested it for the second time last night!

I’m going to make this tonight, any suggestions on sides to put with?

I would serve with some buttered pasta and steamed green beans or broccoli.

Sounds perfect Valerie!

I made brown rice on the side
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
The perfect side!
