Chicken and Sauce Ingredients

  • 3 large chicken breasts
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons flour for dredging
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons butter (½ stick) divided
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

  • 6 slices Muenster cheese see note

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375F and position the rack in the top third of the oven.
  • Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so you've got 6 thinner cutlets. Generously season both sides with salt & pepper and coat each piece in flour. Shake off any excess flour.
  • Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in two batches, lightly browning each piece for about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer to a 9×13 casserole dish as you finish.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the butter to the same skillet. Once it melts, add the mushrooms and cook until seared and water is cooked off, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the casserole dish.
  • In the same skillet, over medium heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add flour and garlic. Cook for about a minute, stirring constantly.
  • Pour in the sherry, then whisk in the cream until smooth. Cook for a few minutes until thickened slightly. Season with salt & pepper.
  • Pour the cream sauce over the chicken and mushrooms, and top with cheese slices.
  • Cover the casserole with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and broil for a few minutes until cheese is browned.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

You may sub the sherry for marsala. You may swap the Muenster cheese for Swiss cheese or other melting cheese.
