Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1/2 large onion, chopped
  • 2 (10 ounce) packages sliced fresh button mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Wash chicken breasts, pat dry with paper towels, and cut each breast in half.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken briefly, turning until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, in another large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat. Stir in mushrooms, onions, and garlic, if using; cook until they are nice and soft, about 5 minutes.
  4. Pour contents of both skillets into a baking dish, sprinkle cheese over the top, and bake about 5 minutes.
