- First, you will create the marinade for the chicken. To a gallon-sized zip-top plastic bag, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Close the bag and squish the marinade around in the bag to combine all of the ingredients.
- Then, add the chicken to the bag, press out all of the air, and rub the chicken breasts in the bag, rolling them around in the marinade so that they are completely coated in the oil and seasonings.
- Set the zip-top baggie aside for about ten to fifteen minutes to allow the chicken breasts to absorb the flavors of the herbs and spices. While you are waiting on the marinating chicken, you can move on to preparing the other parts of the recipe.
- Heat your oven to 400 degrees and place the frozen spinach in a microwave-safe bowl. Add a couple of tablespoons of water and cover the bowl with a saucer.
