For the Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
For the Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped
- 8 oz (225g) mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup (120ml) chicken broth
- 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 cup (50g) shredded mozzarella
- 1/4 cup (25g) grated Parmesan cheese
For Garnish:
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil and sear chicken on both sides until golden (about 3–4 minutes per side). Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, melt butter. Add onions and mushrooms, sauté until soft and browned.
- Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in chicken broth, cream, onion powder, and simmer for 3 minutes.
- Return chicken to the skillet or transfer all to a baking dish. Spoon sauce and mushrooms over the top.
- Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan over each piece of chicken.
- Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temp 165°F/74°C).
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.
Notes
- Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles to soak up the sauce.
- Add a splash of white wine to the sauce for extra depth.
- Use Gruyère or Swiss cheese for a more classic twist.
