Delicious one-pan meal: bacon, spinach, chicken, and scalloped potatoes for a quick weeknight dinner.
Ingredients:
  • 4 slices bacon, cut in 1/4-inch pieces
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in 1-inch pieces
  • 1 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 2 teaspoons chopped garlic
  • 1 box (4.7 oz) Betty Crocker™ scalloped potatoes
  • 2 cups water
  • 4 oz (half of 8-oz package) cream cheese, cubed and softened
  • 2 cups baby spinach
Instructions:
  • Preheat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon for 7 to 8 minutes until crispy; then drain on a plate lined with paper towels, leaving 1 tablespoon of drippings in the skillet.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat and add chicken, onions, and pepper to the bacon drippings. Cook for 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through. Add garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Combine the potatoes, sauce mix (from potato box), and 2 cups of water in a pot. Stir well and bring to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 14 to 16 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the sauce has thickened, stirring occasionally.
  • Take the mixture off the heat and gently fold in the cream cheese and spinach until the cheese is melted and the spinach is wilted. Sprinkle the top with crispy bacon for added flavor, then serve promptly.
