Chicken With Mushrooms...

I thought I might come up with something a little fancier than the "working man's recipes" I've been coming up with lately.  I actually saw this prepared in a small Italian eatery my wife and I went to , whose name escapes me now.  I realize that if I intend to do restaurant reviews in the future, I can't be forgetting the names of the various and anonymous places that we eat.  Anyway..this is a great recipe for Chicken with Mushrooms..

INGREDIENTS:

3 cups sliced mushrooms

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

2 eggs, beaten

1 cup seasoned bread crumbs

2 tablespoons butter

6 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced

3/4 cup chicken broth

Fettuchini pasta(optional)


DIRECTIONS:

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2.Place half of the mushrooms in a 9x13 inch pan. Dip chicken into beaten eggs, then roll in bread crumbs.

3.In skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Brown both sides of chicken in skillet.
Then Place chicken on top of mushrooms, arrange remaining mushrooms on chicken, and top with mozzarella cheese. Add chicken broth to pan.

4.Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

5. If you choose, you can boil pasta and serve this over it.


Serve this with a nice red wine!   Enjoy!
