Chicken and Mushrooms with steamed carrots

So I forgot to take a picture until we had already "dug" in. This was a really good meal. I'm trying to cook exclusively from my pantry and freezer this week. Except for fresh produce. I found this recipe here. My husband loved it and so did I. My kids ate some. They are so picky.


  • 6 Servings
  • Prep: 5 min. Bake: 30 min.

Ingredients

  • 6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup sherry or chicken broth
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 3/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

  • Arrange chicken in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, saute mushrooms in butter for 5 minutes. Add the sherry or broth, green onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Pour over chicken.
  • Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Top with cheese. Bake for 3-5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 6 servings.
