Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  2. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Saute mushrooms until tender. Reduce heat to low, and stir in cream cheese until melted. Remove from heat.
