Chicken and Mushrooms

Ingredients:

3 cups sliced mushrooms

4 chicken breasts, halved

2 eggs, beaten

1 cup seasoned bread crumbs ( I Add some grated Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper)

2 Tablespoons butter

6 oz. grated mozzarella cheese

3/4 cup chicken broth

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350. Place half of the sliced mushrooms in the bottom of a baking dish. Dip chicken into beaten eggs and then roll in the bread crumbs. In skillet, melt butter on medium heat, and brown both sides of the chicken. Place browned chicken on top of the mushrooms in the baking dish. Place remaining mushrooms on top of the chicken and cover in grated mozzarella cheese. Pour chicken broth over it all and bake for 1 hour or until juices run clear from the chicken.

This is a great recipe to make up ahead of time and bake right before you need it. We have it with spaghetti, but it can also be served over rice. Enjoy!

                             Leia loves riding her bike in the neighborhood.  She is now officially too fast for me to walk next to her.  I have to jog to keep up!
