Butterflied Mushroom Chicken Food

GARLIC BUTTER MUSHROOM STUFFED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large oven-proof skillet (if you have one--if not, use a regular skillet) over medium heat. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and sauté just until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Add the mushrooms and parsley. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are soft.
• Season each chicken breast on both sides with the onion powder, salt, and pepper.
• Butterfly each chicken breast to create a large "pocket" in the center. Stuff each chicken breast with two slices of mozzarella cheese, the cooked mushrooms, and Parmesan cheese. Use toothpicks to close each opening of the pockets.
• Heat the oven-proof skillet over medium heat again. Add the olive oil and once hot, place each stuffed chicken breast into the skillet. Cook the chicken breasts on each side until golden brown.
• Cover the oven-proof skillet with an oven-proof lid or foil. Place the whole skillet in the oven and bake at 400F for 20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165F.
• Note: if you do not have an oven-safe skillet, bake the chicken in a glass baking dish instead.
• While the chicken is baking, heat 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and sauté until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Add the dijon mustard and 1 1/2 cups of the half and half; whisk until smooth.
• Mix the cornstarch and water together, then whisk into the sauce. Mix in the Parmesan cheese. Bring the sauce to a simmer, stirring often. Reduce the heat to low and add salt and pepper to taste along with the chopped fresh parsley. If needed, add the remaining 1/2 cup of half and half to thin the sauce if it becomes too thick.
• Remove the toothpicks from the chicken breasts, then nestle the chicken into the cream sauce. Serve warm.

MUSHROOM STUFFED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Wash, dry, and butterfly chicken breasts. (To butterfly put your chicken breast on a chopping board and, with your hand flat on top of it, use a sharp knife to slice into one side of the breast, starting at the thicker end and ending at the thin point. Be careful not to cut all the way through to the other side.) Set aside.
• Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Finely chop each mushroom, discarding the tough ends of stems.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and chopped mushroom to the skillet. Fry until any moisture has disappeared, taking care not to burn the garlic. Set aside to cool.
• Once cooled, stir cream cheese, bacon, parmesan cheese, black pepper, onion powder, and cayenne pepper together.
• Open butterflied chicken breasts and scoop 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture into the fold, spread evenly keeping away from the edges of the chicken. (Optional: Secure the fold with a toothpick.)
• Season chicken with salt and pepper.
• Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter, and 2 tablespoons lime juice to a skillet, cook over medium heat. Once the oil mixture starts to sizzle, add the chicken to the pan.
• Cook each side for 8-10 minutes and then flip. Use the pan juices to baste the chicken during the cooking process. (Note: Cooking time will vary based on the size of the chicken breast. Using a meat thermometer is always recommended. The chicken should be 165 °F when fully cooked.)
• Serve warm.

Add the chicken cutlets and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on one side, then turn over and cook for another 3 minutes or so. To check for doneness, cut into a piece with a thin-bladed knife and take a peek. Transfer the chicken to an ovenproof platter and put it in the oven.
