- Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add chicken breast fillets and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes per side until they’re golden brown and release easily from the pan. Remove chicken breasts from the pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet add onion and cook for 3 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Add pasta, chicken broth, diced tomatoes and Italian seasoning.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring every 3 to 4 minutes to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Stir in spinach and return chicken to the skillet.
- Top the dish with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
- Place dish in the oven and bake for about 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and cheese is melted.
