Preparation

Step 1

In saucepan, melt butter; add onion and sauté. Add minced garlic. Mix with the drained spinach, and cook until hot. Place the mixture in the bottom of a pan (I assume that's a 9 x 13").

In a large skillet, melt butter and add mushrooms. Saute lightly. Stir in the flour, and add the chicken broth, cream, nutmeg, lemon juice, cooked chicken and mix well. Cook over medium heat until all is hot.

Pour the mushroom/chicken mixture over the spinach mixture, and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

Put under the broiler until hot and the cheese has melted.
