PREPARATION

1
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
2
In a small skillet over medium heat, add the extra virgin olive oil and sauté the diced yellow onion and minced garlic for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
3
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and toss until just wilted, then remove from heat.
4
In a small oven-safe baking dish, stir together the cooked green lentils, tomato puree, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
5
Fold the sautéed onion, garlic, and spinach into the lentil mixture until well combined.
6
Place the chicken breast on top of the lentils, pressing it down slightly into the sauce.
7
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
8
Remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the chicken, and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the chicken is cooked through.
