Flexible Chicken Success
- 4 -8 chicken cutlets
- 14 cup flour
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 14 teaspoon pepper
- 6 -12 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 8 -16 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced or shredded
- 2 -4 tablespoons butter or 2 -4 tablespoons oil
- 1 teaspoon parsley (optional)
- 12 teaspoon seasoning salt (optional)
- 12 teaspoon sodium-free seasoning (optional)
- Pound chicken to even out thickness (can skip this if you hate to do it).
- Flour chicken.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Brown chicken lightly-- don't need to cook all the way.
- Put chicken in large casserole or roasting pan in one layer.
- In the same frying pan, melt a little butter or use oil and saute mushrooms until lightly browned.
- (Can skip this step too.)
- Place mushrooms on top of chicken.
- Melt more butter or oil and saute onion until soft.
- (This is not in the original but I like onions.
- Leave them out if you don't or they don't like you.)
- Place onions on top of mushrooms.
- Add some parsley, seasoning salt or no-salt seasoning, if you want.
- Cover with cheese.
- Original recipe uses portabella mushrooms and fontina cheese I think, but mozzarella is fine.
- Swiss would probably be good too.
- Bake for about 20 minutes at 375 degrees or so.
- Longer at a lower temperature or less at higher.
- Basically you want to cook the chicken, melt the cheese and get some juices in the pan.
- Essentials are chicken, mushrooms and cheese.
- This is really good with rice, but noodles might be tasty too.
- I've also made a version using puff pastry which is pretty and delicious but more work.
- Another variation I tried used some additional vegetables like peppers, zucchini and tomatoes.
- It was good, but I like the standard version.
