This easy chicken recipe is made in the skillet, with chicken breasts, zucchini, and tomatoes, along with cheese and other ingredients. This is great with hot cooked angel hair pasta or rice.

Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup flour, seasoned with salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 small zucchini, halved and sliced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/3 cup dry sherry (can use white wine or chicken broth)
  • 1 (14 to 15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, or use about 2 cups fresh diced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or Cheddar cheese, or a combination

Preparation:

Dredge chicken pieces in flour mixture. Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a heavy oven-proof skillet; add chicken pieces to hot oil. When browned, remove chicken to a plate. Saute zucchini and mushrooms for 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken pieces back into skillet. Pour sherry over all; cook another 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; top with tomatoes. Transfer the pan to a preheated 325 degree oven. Cook for about 45 minutes or until chicken is done. Top with shredded cheese just a few minutes before done.
Serve this tasty chicken with a salad and hot cooked pasta.
Serves 4.

If this is southern cooking, I love it!, Member janglin28

This recipe is fabulous, easy to make, and a one-pot dinner. What more could you want? I made it with the sherry, fresh tomatoes from my garden, and a combo of cheddar and monterey jack cheese (I was out of mozzarella) and it turmed out terrific. This will become a regular in my dinner repertoire.
