- Place the split and seasoned chicken in the baking dish. Drizzle a little olive oil on the chicken; then put the mushroom/spinach mixture onto the chicken pieces. Save a little for on top at end. Generously cover the pieces with shredded parmesan cheese (how much you like). Bake for 16 minutes. Check after 12 minutes to make sure the chicken is not burning or getting dry. Add more cheese if desired for the remaining cooking time. Remove from oven and serve..
