Ingredients 🍴✨
For the Chicken:
4 boneless chicken breasts 🍗
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 🧀
1 cup mushrooms, sliced 🍄
2 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
2 tbsp butter 🧈
1 tbsp olive oil 🛢️
Salt and pepper to taste 🧂
1 tsp Italian seasoning 🌿
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish 🌿
Instructions 📝✨
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Using a sharp knife, create a pocket in each chicken breast without cutting all the way through. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. In a skillet, melt butter and sauté garlic and mushrooms until soft and golden. Stuff each chicken breast with sautéed mushrooms and shredded mozzarella. Heat olive oil in the same skillet and sear the stuffed chicken on both sides until golden brown, about 3–4 minutes per side. Transfer to the oven and bake for 15–18 minutes until fully cooked. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with your favorite side!
