Here's a way to dress up chicken breasts for a family dinner or party, using fresh mushrooms, green onions and two kinds of cheese. It's a recipe I can count on to yield tender and flavorful chicken every time. -Barbara McCalley, Allison Park, Pennsylvania

  • Yield: 4 Servings
20 20 40

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1 pound)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/3 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions

Directions

  • Flatten each chicken breast half to 1/4-in. thickness. Place flour in a resealable plastic bag; add chicken, a few pieces at a time. Seal and shake to coat.
  • In a large skillet, brown chicken in 2 tablespoons butter on both sides. Transfer to a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. In the same skillet, saute mushrooms in the remaining butter until tender. Add the broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; cook for 5 minutes or until liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup. Spoon over chicken.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 15 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Sprinkle with cheeses and green onions. Bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Yield: 4 servings.

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.
