1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Slice chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create 4 thin chicken breasts. Arrange in a baking dish, season with salt and pepper, and half of the garlic. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and heavy cream until smooth. Add the remaining garlic, onion powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, and season with salt and pepper. Beat to combine, then add the parmesan cheese and half of the mozzarella and beat once more.
Spread/pour the cream cheese mixture on top and around the chicken. Drizzle with about a tablespoon of the reserved sun-dried tomato oil and scatter sun-dried tomatoes around the dish.
Cover dish loosely with foil and bake until chicken is cooked through (reaches an internal temperature of 165°F), about 20 minutes.
Uncover chicken and stir spinach into sauce. Top with remaining mozzarella and return to oven, uncovered, to cook until cheese is melted and spinach has wilted, about 10 minutes.
