It’s delicious and so easy! Delicious soft chicken breasts, stuffed with cream cheese, baked with cherry tomatoes and spinach and topped with crispy homemade bread crumbs

We all love a one pot wonder don’t we. This is such a crowd pleaser I’m sure it will become a regular on your dining table
Perfect Texture & Flavour with this Philadelphia Chicken Bake
The creaminess of the philly and the crunch of the breadcrumbs is yummy!
It also has a sweetness to it from the cherry tomatoes and garlicky yumminess, plus the chicken stays super moist….
So good!
I know many many people have added other veggies too with great success
Such as mushrooms, broccoli, sweetcorn etc
Have a go – try it 🙂
Philadelphia Chicken a firm crowd pleaser and so simple
We all love Philadelphia Cheese recipes don’t we, and it doesn’t have to be Philadelphia any soft mild cheese spread?
I love to use it in pasta dishes too.
I find that using the light or the extra light versions help me keep the calories lower and also the fat.
And it still works really well with the low fat versions
What to serve your Philadelphia Chicken dinner
I usually serve mine with new potatoes and peas.
But it would also be great with a salad.
Or why not just a big plate of veggies
Or maybe even with a small portion of pasta, the sauce works really well with pasta

Chicken – Nutrition
The good thing is that Chicken is an excellent source of niacin and very good source of protein and selenium. It is also a good source of protein, selenium, vitamin B6, and phosphorus. And low in fat!
It is also a good source of choline, pantothenic acid and vitamin B12.
So I’m sold!

Absolutely delicious will do it again.

I’m not one to leave a comment on a recipe, but I’ve made this twice between four nights, and am thinking of making it yet again (three times in less than one week?!?) it is that delicious. Both times I made it, I changed up the vegetables with what I had available (one time using shaved Brussels sprouts and the other time using cauliflower, both in place of the spinach) and it was fantastic. Love this versatile, easy yet impressive enough to serve company dish.

Oh Thanks Amy and so lovely to hear – I like your ideas 🙂 xx
Marion

Super to hear – Thank you x
Kayla
Does this recipe need to be made with the spinach and tomatoes can you just make it as like a chicken dish and could you also chop up the bacon and put in with the cream cheese mixture??
Clare x
Hi Kayla – not it doesn’t have to have the tomatoes or spinach – but it is a full meal with them
I would add the bacon on top of the chicken so it’s crispy
Let me know how you get on
Thanks Clare
