  • 1 tsp Italian seasonings
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp ground pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, Italian seasonings, salt, and pepper.
  • Heat a large skillet with oil on a medium flame, add the chicken breasts and cook for 7-8 minutes until they turn golden. Transfer them to a plate and set aside.
  • To the same skillet add the butter. Once the butter is melted add in the yellow onion, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms start releasing moisture.
  • Add half of the sauteed mushroom mixture to a baking dish and spread evenly. Place the chicken breasts over the mushroom mixture.
  • To the remaining half of the mushroom mixture, add the chicken broth and allow to simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Top the chicken breasts with the remaining mushroom mixture and pour the liquid on top. Add mozzarella cheese over the chicken breasts and bake for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to avoid drying out the chicken.
