Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a large casserole dish before adding spinach, artichokes, and cauliflower rice.

Step 2

Preheat a large skillet over high heat. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Add olive oil to the skillet then fry the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side. Once the chicken begins to brown, remove it from the heat. It doesn’t need to be cooked through at this point.

Step 3

Make a creamy sauce. In a large bowl, add mayonnaise, coconut milk, nutritional yeast, onion powder, mustard, salt, garlic, and lemon juice. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Pour approximately half of the creamy sauce over the vegetables in the casserole dish. Stir and coat the vegetables with the sauce. Then place the chicken breasts on top and press down slightly. Add the remaining sauce on top of the chicken.

Step 5

Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the casserole is bubbling.
