Mushroom Melt Stuffed Chicken Recipes

MUSHROOM STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Place butter in a pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until slightly softened.
• Add in mushrooms and cook until juices are released and reabsorbed. Add wine and thyme. Cook until evaporated but not dry. Cool completely.
• Combine cooled mushrooms with cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, and salt & pepper to taste.
• Using a sharp knife, cut a 1 ½″ slit in the side of the chicken. Move the knife around creating a pocket. Fill the pocket with ¼ of the mushroom mixture. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
• Sprinkle the chicken with paprika, garlic powder, and salt & pepper to taste.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in an oven-proof skillet. Brown the chicken for about 3 minutes on each side until golden.
• Place the skillet in the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches 165°F in the thickest part.

MUSHROOM-STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking tray with foil. Mix garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika together in a small bowl.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and saute for 1 minute.
• Set aside 1/3 of the mushrooms for garnish; add remaining mushrooms to the skillet and season with salt. Saute until soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Add wine and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, scraping any browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a spoon. Add parsley and pepper, then mix in just enough bread crumbs to bind. Remove from the heat.
• Cut a slit in each chicken breast to form a pocket. Stuff mushroom mixture into each pocket. Season one side of each breast with salt, then with the 1/2 of the spice mixture.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken breasts, seasoned-sides down, in the hot skillet and let them brown for about 2 minutes. Season the tops with the remaining spice mixture, flip, and brown for 2 more minutes. Transfer to the prepared baking tray.
• Spoon reserved mushrooms over the chicken breasts, then pour condensed soup over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

CHICKEN-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove stems from mushrooms, but do not discard. Using a small melon baller, scoop out insides of mushrooms, leaving at least half shell to allow more room for filling. Finely chop mushroom stems and centers.
• Melt butter over medium heat in large skillet. Add onion and garlic; cook 1 minute. Stir in chicken, chopped mushrooms, Diamond Crystal® Kosher Salt, and pepper. Cook and stir 3 minutes longer. Blend in flour, cream and 3 tablespoons parsley. Cook and stir until bubbly and thickened. Remove from heat.
• Spoon mixture evenly into mushroom caps. Place in lightly oiled, shallow baking dish. Bake 10 minutes. Top with remaining 2 tablespoons parsley and garnish with mozzarella or Parmesan cheese, if desired. Bake 5 to 10 minutes longer or until hot and cheese melts. Garnish with additional parsley, if desired.

CHEESY MUSHROOM-STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons flour and stir until blended and paste-like. Stir in sour cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper until combined. Cook and stir until mixture is very thick, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in Cheddar cheese and cook until it melts, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and transfer to a pie pan or a square pan. Cover and refrigerate until chilled and firm, about 1 hour. Cut chilled cheese mixture into 6 "sticks."
• Place 1/2 cup flour in a shallow dish, beaten eggs in another dish, and bread crumbs in a third dish.
• Place a chicken breast in a resealable plastic bag and pound with a wooden mallet to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Season chicken with salt and place a cheese stick in the middle. Roll chicken up like a jelly roll. Dust it in flour, dip it in egg, and then dip it in crumbs. Repeat to flatten, stuff, and bread remaining chicken breasts. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour or until ready to cook.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a shallow baking dish with foil.
• Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sear until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 30 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
