Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 cups Bell peppers (red, yellow, or green), diced
• 1 cup Frozen corn
• 2 cups Fresh spinach, chopped
• 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.75 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with olive oil or cooking spray.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder on both sides.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown but not fully cooked. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the diced bell peppers and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened. Stir in the frozen corn and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, combine mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Stir until well blended.

Step 6

Chop the partially cooked chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes and add them to the cheese mixture. Fold in the sautéed vegetables.

Step 7

Transfer the chicken and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and melted butter until the mixture resembles coarse sand.

Step 9

Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the chicken bake.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.

Step 11

Let the bake rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your colorful and cheesy Confetti Chicken Bake!
