Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Boil water and cook pasta for approximately 8 minutes, drain then place it in a large mixing bowl. To the drained pasta add chopped chicken, artichoke hearts, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, sour cream, cream cheese, 1 1/2 cups of mozzarella cheese, milk, spinach, parmesan cheese, and lemon juice. Mix all the ingredients together and set aside.

In a medium sized frying pan cook the onion and garlic over medium heat with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Lightly saute for about five minutes then add that to the pasta mix, add salt & pepper to the pasta mix and blend well.

Place all your ingredients in a 13 x 9 inch pan, top the ingredients with 1 1/2 cups of mozzarella and then sprinkle with parsley. Place the pan in the oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes at 425°F.
