CHICKEN WITH MUENSTER AND MUSHROOMS
Steps:
- Pound the chicken thin, then dredge in seasoned flour. Heat half of the butter with 1 T. oil and sauté half of the chicken over medium heat, turning once. Remove to a baking dish. Repeat with the remaining butter, oil and chicken. Pour both wines into the pan and bring to a boil. Cook for 3 minutes, until slightly reduced. In a separate pan, heat the remaining 2 T. butter and sauté the mushrooms until tender. Top each piece of chicken with a slice of cheese, then add the mushrooms. Pour the wine sauce over this and either bake immediately or cover and refrigerate. Can be made up to 24 hours in advance at this point. Bake in a preheated oven for 25 minutes at 400 degrees until brown and bubbly.
Tips:
- To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
- If you don't have dry white wine, you can substitute it with chicken broth or water.
- Fresh mushrooms are best for this recipe, but you can also use canned or frozen mushrooms if that's what you have on hand.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to this dish, such as bell peppers, carrots, or zucchini.
- Serve this dish over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.
