Description

This easy baked chicken and mushrooms is a winning combination of chicken breasts, mozzarella, and mushrooms. Serve it with rice or noodles.

Ingredients

3 cups sliced mushrooms
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons butter
6 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced
3/4 cup chicken broth

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Place 1/2 of the mushrooms in a 9x13-inch pan.
3 Add eggs to a shallow dish. Add bread crumbs to a second shallow dish. Dip chicken into beaten eggs, then roll in bread crumbs. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Brown chicken on both sides.
4 Place chicken on top of mushrooms in the pan. Arrange remaining mushrooms over chicken and top with mozzarella cheese. Add chicken broth to the pan.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
