Prep. Clean 8 ounces of mushrooms with a damp towel then slice them and set them aside. Then, prep your 1 Ā½ pounds of the chicken breast by placing them on a cutting board, covered with plastic cling film, then pounding them to an even thickness using a meat tenderizer. Saute. Heat a cast-iron skillet or frying pan with the first 1 tablespoon of olive oil to medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and a pinch of salt & pepper then saute for 8-10 minutes until tender and golden. Reheat your pan. Transfer the sauteed mushrooms to a plate and set them aside. Wipe your pan clean and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then bring the pan back to medium-high heat. Season. Season the first side of your chicken breasts with a portion of the Ā½ of both salt & pepper and Ā¼ teaspoon of garlic salt and lay them seasoned-side-down in your heated skillet. Then, season the upward-facing side with the remainder of the seasoning. Cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side.Check for doneness. Once the chicken is lightly browned on both sides and no longer pink inside with an internal temperature of at least 165Ā°FĀ (74Ā°C), assemble the mushroom Swiss chicken. Assemble and serve. Portion the sauteed mushrooms over each piece of chicken then top them with a slice of Swiss cheese. Cover the pan to melt the cheese then serve immediately. Mushroom Swiss Chicken is incredibly versatile! This go around I served it with a simple side of steamed broccoli, but my family has also enjoyed it on a bed of garlic mashed potatoes or white rice. Enjoy! šŸ’­ Angela’s Tips & Recipe Notes There areĀ about 2 Ā½ cups per 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms.Use chicken cutlets if desired. To cook large chicken breasts quickly, cut them in half butterfly-style to reduce the thickness or use a meat tenderizer to pound them out to an even thickness.Storing: Store leftover mushroom Swiss chicken breasts in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheating: To reheat, place the chicken cheese-side-up on a baking sheet and cover it with foil. Bake at 350Ā°F (175Ā°C) for 10 minutes, check if it is warmed through, and if not return it uncovered for a few minutes more.
