This entree is easy to prepare but looks and tastes special enough for company and special-occasion suppers. Everyone enjoys the golden chicken breasts topped with ham, melted Swiss cheese and fresh mushrooms.Jan Baxter, Humarock, Massachusetts Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each) |
1 egg |
1 cup crushed butter-flavored crackers (about 25 crackers) |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced |
2 tablespoons butter, divided |
4 slices deli ham or thinly sliced hard salami |
4 slices swiss cheese |
Directions:
1. Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness. In a shallow bowl, lightly beat the egg. Combine cracker crumbs and salt in another shallow bowl. Dip chicken in egg, then roll in crumbs; set aside.
2. In a large ovenproof skillet, saute mushrooms in 1 tablespoon butter until tender; remove and set aside. In the same skillet, cook chicken over medium heat in remaining butter for 3-4 minutes on each side or until no longer pink.
3. Top each chicken breast half with a ham slice, mushrooms and a cheese slice. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat for 1-2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 4 servings.
