CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MOZZARELLA CHEESE

Category: Chicken

4 boneless chicken breast halves
1/4 cup flour for dredging
3 tbsp butter, divided
Salt and pepper, to taste
4 oz sliced mushrooms
4 slices mozzarella cheese

Pound chicken breast halves until evenly thin. Dredge chicken with flour. In a large skillet, heat butter over medium heats. Cook chicken in butter for about 4 to 6 minutes on each side, until tender and cooked through. Remove chicken to a shallow baking dish; sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Add 1 tbsp butter to skillet and saute mushrooms until tender. Arrange mushroom slices on top of each piece of chicken; cover with a slice of cheese. Place remaining mushrooms around chicken. Place chicken breasts under a hot broiler until cheese is melted. Serve immediately with hot buttered pasta or rice. Serves 4
