Introduction

I love this recipe, I made this up to flavor up some chicken and eat it al the time since I have been dieting. It is so good! I hope you all think so too! I like this the best with the chicken cooked on the grill but you can do whatever method you like to cook the chicken.

Ingredients

    4 Chicken Breasts (4-5 oz. each)
    4 Kraft 2% Pepperjack Singles
    8 oz. Baby Bella Mushrooms, chopped
    1 Tbsp. Olive Oil
    1 Tbsp Light Butter
    2 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
    1 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
    1 Tbsp Parsley, dried
    1/2 Tbsp Oregano
    1 tsp chicken or steak seasoning

Directions

Trim all visible fat off of chicken and pound each breast so it is about an inch thick.
Spread the olive oil, chicken/steak seasoning and parsley between all four breast and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
In a medium size pan, heat butter and oregano until butter is melted. Add all the mushrooms and top with the worcestershire sauce and balsamic vinegar. Stir. Cover and simmer until chicken is done.
Cook Chicken on grill, or whatever method you prefer.
When chicken in finished, set on plate and top with the mushrooms and then top with the cheese.
The cheese should melt but if not sometimes I put the plate in the microwave and heat for 30 seconds.
This is delicious served with some other veggie like steam green beans!

    Oh My Goodness~ the flavors were wonderful!! I made it just as written except for the Kraft 2% Pepperjack Singles. I didn't have those so I minced a hot pepper and tossed it with shredded mozzarella cheese instead. An excellent dinner that I'll certainly make again. Thanks for posting :) - 7/30/08

    Made this tonight and my husband says it's a keeper. I used skim mozzarella and regular mushrooms as that's what I had. Next time I will make rice as that would be good with the sauce. - 1/16/17

    Made this for dinner tonight. I couldn't find the Kraft cheese so I used Great Value Pepper Jack cheese. I did have to toss it into the microwave for a few seconds to melt. Must try. - 10/18/16

    My husband and I both really enjoyed this recipe. I used regular mushrooms and plain Jack cheese. since I used regular shredded cheese I used less of it. Delightful flavors. - 2/19/13

    This was a delicious and tasty dish! My husband and I both loved it. I reduced the oregano to half and used the steak season instead of the chicken seasoning. - 10/7/12

    This was so yummy. I paired it with couscous and roasted brussel sprouts and it was divine. Didn't use pepperjack; used fresh Monterey Jack shavings on top. Sauted the chicken (live in an apt, so I don't have a grill). Very easy to make and will be making again!!!! - 8/27/12

    We had this tonight with some steamable green beans as a side and we loved it. It's quick, healthy & delicious. I did omit the balsamic vinegar and just sauteed the mushrooms, added a bit of garlic powder & voila' this recipe was added to my "Favs". Thanks for sharing :) - 7/18/12

    I made this for myself & 3 housemates tonight. Of the bunch, I was the only one who disliked the sauce, and it was simply because of the balsamic vinegar. I've never been a fan of Balsamic Vinegar, but my room mates will drench their frys/fish in it. Thks for posting! I'll try another Vinegar/wine! - 2/23/12

    This was a great dinner!! we loved it! My husband asked if I could make it a couple of times a week. I didn't have the poultry seasoning and used essence of emeril instead. Great easy meal to make..thinking about making it again tomorrow! :) - 1/9/12
