Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

  • Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Make a deep pocket in each chicken breast and season with salt and pepper.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté chopped mushrooms until golden brown, add minced garlic and thyme, then remove from heat and let cool.
  • Combine the sautéed mushrooms with cream cheese and half of the mozzarella in a mixing bowl.
  • Fill each chicken breast with the mushroom filling, securing edges if necessary.
  • Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear each chicken breast for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked through and cheese is bubbly.
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, garnish with parsley, and serve.
