1. Prepare the Oven and Baking Dish
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Grease the bottom of a 13×9-inch baking dish with butter.
2. Prepare the Chicken
- Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, lemon pepper seasoning, and paprika.
- Place the chicken flat-side down in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes to partially cook the chicken.
3. Prepare the Creamed Spinach
- While the chicken is baking, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the fresh spinach, cover, and cook for 1-2 minutes until the spinach wilts.
- Remove the cover, add the minced garlic, and pour in the half-and-half. Bring to a boil.
- Stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese, cooking for about 30 seconds until the cheese melts into a creamy sauce.
- Lower the heat, stir until smooth and creamy, and season with salt to taste. Set aside.
4. Prepare the Mushrooms
- In a separate skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized. Avoid salting to ensure proper browning.
