Preparation

Step 1

In a large, oven proof skillet over medium heat, simmer the cream cheese with chicken broth for 7-8 minutes, whisking constantly until well blended. Season with salt, pepper, and creole seasoning.

Meanwhile, cook the tortellini as directed on package then drain in a colander.

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Add spinach to the cream cheese sauce and simmer for another 4-5 minutes. Stir in the tortellini and chicken. Pour into a 11 x 17" casserole dish or an oven proof skillet. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.

Place the casserole dish in the oven and bake for about 7-8 minutes, just until the cheese melts.

Serve immediately and enjoy!
