Step 1
Sauté
In a skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the chicken and season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until golden and cooked through.

Add the flour and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more.
Step 2
Whisk
Whisk the milk into the flour mixture until smooth. Stir in the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Simmer until the cheese is melted.
Step 3
Stir
Stir in the spinach, the artichoke hearts. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and simmer over medium low heat until heated through.
Step 4
Serve
Serve the Chicken Artichoke Dip right from the skillet with slices of toasted crusty bread or sturdy crackers.
