What Are We Mixin’ Up This Week?

Welcome back to my weekly feature: Mix It Up Monday with Mad Dash Mixes!  I took a short break from publishing this weekly post due to some family commitments.  I am so happy to be back in the test kitchen this week!

Culinary mixes can make a cook’s life so much easier!  Using a mix to make a recipe is as simple as adding a few ingredients to the mix and then stirring, cooking or chilling and serving!  After meeting the folks from Mad Dash Mixes* at a blogging conference last summer, I decided to add a weekly blog post featuring recipes using their mixes.

One of their delicious mixes is a mix for Warm Spinach Artichoke Dip.  Today I am sharing an alternative way to serve this delicious dip:  Spinach Artichoke Chicken Bake

Let’s Get to Mixin’

Disclaimer:  I thought I was thawing out 2 packages of boneless chicken breasts.  However, one package was actually boneless breast chunks.  I decided to go ahead and try my best to replicate the recipe.  After mixing the 1/2 and 1/2 with the finished dip, I spread the mixture on the bottom of the pan.  I reserved a small amount of the dip/1/2 & 1/2 mixture to use on the top of the rolled chicken.  I placed the 4 rolled chicken breasts on top of the dip mixture.  Then I baked as directed.  The finished dish was very delicious!

• Preheat the  oven to 400 degrees.
• Mix up a batch of  Spinach Artichoke Dip using the directions in the next step.
• To a block of softened cream cheese, add the dip mix,  a cup of mayonnaise, a can of artichokes (cut and drained) and the  shredded Parmesan cheese. Blend well.  Do not bake it.
• Next, slice 4 boned  chicken breasts in half to make thin, easy to roll pieces. Spread  the spinach artichoke dip onto the chicken breast  and roll like a pinwheel.
•  In a greased 9 inch by 13 inch baking dish, put the rolled chicken in with the pieces touching.
• Add 1/4 cup half and half to any remaining dip and pour over the rolled chicken pieces.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper if desired and then add 1/2 to 1 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese or grated cheese of your choice.
• Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken breasts reach 165 degrees.
