This chicken turned out very flavorful and moist. I left out the mushrooms and added onions and Italian herbs, as I did not have any mushrooms. It is a great gourmet-style recipe that is not too complicated! I would definitely make this again!

I don't use the cheese. We love this dish.

me and my husband really liked it. I didn't have any green onions but it turned out really well. I used about a cup of broth to start out with and it boiled down good. I loved the cheese on top and probably put more than called for! The mushrooms were fantastic!

One of my favorite "company" dishes... especially when it isn't grilling season. So moist and flavorful - I always receive rave reviews. delicious with the "Herbed Angel Hair Pasta."

I have made this recipe numerous times since the first time I served it to my family. It is excellent. We add additional mushrooms since we love them.

This is the most amazing tender chicken ever, my whole family loves this and when my son comes home from college he always asks me to make this. Along with the mushrooms I will often add green peppers and onions. Turns out everytime!

This was so easy to make and so delicious!! I added the whole package of mushrooms instead of just one cup, and I did 1/4 cup chicken broth and 1/4 cup white wine... I HIGHLY recommend this!

This was delicious, I was feeling creative so I made some modifications. I added a few splashes of white wine for flavour, sautéed some garlic and onion in with the mushrooms . I also added some season salt to the flour mix. Served with asparagus and dill cream sauce...YUMMY!

My boyfriend gave it a 9/10 and said that I need to "remember this one"

Really enjoyed this recipe. It was delicious and simple. The only thing I did differently was saute the green onions with the mushrooms. I served it with garlic egg noodles and broccoli. Even my 8 yr. old and 5 yr. old liked it. They cleaned their plates!

Always looking for good, relatively easy to prepare, and able bake ahead if needed chicken recipes; this one is a keeper! We doubled the cheese, scallions, and sauce quantities.

Tender and flavorful describes this dish. The family goes wild over it. It's simple and great tasting.

I made this and it was very good, but I'mm confused that you start out with 1/2 cup broth and it says to reduce it to 1/2 cup. It ended up reducing to almost nothing (because I didn't realize it would go so fast) so I added another 1/2 cup broth to pour over the chicken.

Chicken is tender and very good. One of my favorites. My Mom makes this often and I asked her for the recipe. Now I can make it also.

WOW! Everyone loved it! I didn't have mozzarella cheese or green onions and it was still wonderful! Next time I'll try to have both. We ate 2 hours ago and I can still taste it. Definately will make this one again!!

This chicken was absolutely delicious. I'm on the look-out for low carbohydrate recipes as my boyfriend is watching his carbs, and this filled the bill nicely. I could make it even more low-carb by just browning the breasts without the flour. The list of ingredients was simple, and I wasn't expecting it to taste as wonderful as it did. Great recipe! Everyone loved it.

AWESOME flavor! I did not pound out the chicken breasts; I cut them thinner as in tenders and I added extra green onions. YUM! Looks as awesome as it tastes!

A meal rarely gets rated as excellent by everyone; very good yes, but not very often an excellent. This one recipe received an excellent rating from all 4 family members.

I loved it and my guest did also! I cut it in half for two people. I pounded then instead of putting flour on it I sprinkled it with McCormicks Perfect Pinch Garlic & Herb salt free. Then put it in an 8 x 8 pan with the mushrooms and onions on it and baked it, covered. Then uncovered it and put the cheese on it.

This was phenomenal and so easy! I used chicken cutlets instead of pounding out chicken breasts (had about 7 cutlets), and I added some diced green bell pepper and minced garlic to the broth and mushrooms. It was totally amazing! I agree, no need for the extra salt, the parmesan gives plenty of flavor. Will be adding this to my faves!

Hubby and I LOVED this recipe! The flavors were really outstanding! To make it a little healthier, I substituted wheat flour for the all-purpose and used part-skim mozzarella.
