This savory entree has been a longtime favorite with my family. Topped with cheese and Marsala-seasoned mushrooms, the breaded chicken breasts seem anything but light. I often bake them in the oven, but the stovetop make them fast. âElaine Anderson of Aliquippa, Pennsylvania Ingredients:
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms |
4 teaspoons butter, divided |
1/2 cup marsala wine or 1/4 cup white grape juice plus 1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
2 tablespoons fat-free milk |
3/4 cup dry bread crumbs |
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each) |
1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 slices muenster cheese, halved |
