  • Chicken 165° F |

  • If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Add chicken to a medium non-stick pan with 2 tsp. olive oil over medium heat. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    If you received raw pasta, bring 8 cups water to a boil in a pot. Once boiling, cook until al dente, 8-13 minutes. Remove from burner. Drain pasta in a colander/strainer and set aside. Wait until last step to add pasta and stir to combine.

    Halve roll, if necessary.

    In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, half the minced garlic and parsley (reserve remaining for cream base tray), and 1 tsp. olive oil. Spread evenly on cut-sides of roll.

    Combine marinara, cream base, half the red pepper flakes (to taste; reserve remaining for garnish), pasta (Add pasta only if you received pre-cooked pasta. If you received raw pasta, please refer to Step 1.), and remaining minced garlic and parsley in provided tray. Spread into an even layer.

  2. 2

    Add the Spinach and Shrimp

    Pat shrimp dry.

    Top pasta (Add pasta only if you received pre-cooked pasta. If you received raw pasta, please refer to Step 1.) with spinach, then shrimp in an even layer.

    Evenly top shrimp with 2 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Bake the Meal

    Bake uncovered in hot oven, 15 minutes.

    After 15 minutes, place garlic bread, topping-side up, directly on oven rack.

    Bake in hot oven until bread is golden-brown and shrimp reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 8-10 minutes.

    Carefully remove tray and garlic bread from oven. Stir pasta (if using pre-cooked pasta) to combine. If you received raw pasta, add to tray and stir to combine.

    To serve, garnish with cheese and remaining red pepper flakes (to taste). Halve garlic bread on an angle, if desired. Bon appétit!
