Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
4Boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Salt and pepper
1tablespoonOlive oil
4tablespoonsPesto
4ouncesMozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
1cupSliced mushrooms

Directions

Place the chicken breasts between sheets of wax paper and pound until thin.

Sprinkle with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat and lightly brown the chicken on both sides. Remove the pan from the heat.

Spread 1 tablespoon pesto over each chicken breast. <Honestly, most of the time I use the packaged DiGiorno stuff in the dairy aisle. I think it's excellent and SOOOOO much easier than making my own.> Cover each piece with a slice of cheese. Place the mushrooms in the pan around the chicken. Cover and cook over low heat for about 10 minutes or until done.
