01 Step

Recipe View 2 hrs Finely chop the chipotle peppers, combining them with 2 tablespoons of sour cream in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly to create a flavorful paste. Generously spread this mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring each piece is well coated. Season lightly with salt to taste. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully infuse (2 hours+).

Recipe View 10 mins Preheat your broiler with the rack positioned about 6 inches from the top. Place the marinated chicken in an ungreased 9x13 inch baking dish. Broil for approximately 5 minutes, until the chicken starts to slightly firm up. Carefully pour 1 cup of sour cream around the edges of the chicken, then gently turn the chicken breasts over. Broil for an additional 5 minutes, or until the sour cream is lightly browned and bubbly around the edges. Transfer the chicken to a separate dish, cover, and set aside to keep warm (10 minutes).

Recipe View 5 mins Pour the leftover broiled sour cream from the baking dish into a medium saucepan. Place the saucepan over high heat. Add the rinsed baby spinach, chicken broth, and salt to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring continuously until the spinach wilts and the sauce is well combined, about 1 minute. Pour the spinach and sour cream mixture generously over the chicken breasts and serve immediately (5 minutes).

For a milder flavor, remove the seeds from the chipotle peppers before chopping.
Marinating the chicken overnight will result in a more intense and flavorful dish.
Serve with a side of rice and beans for a complete and satisfying meal.
