Yeah - A healthy chicken dinner that incorporates the word "smothered" and cheese? I'll take it!! The kids, of course, weren't super happy about the peppers and onions that topped it, but we just had them slide them off onto our plates and they loved the chicken...
Smothered Chicken
(recipe found on pinterest via nutmegnanny.com)
12 oz boneless skinless chicken breast, grilled
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 green bell pepper, sliced
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon oregano
salt and pepper - to taste
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/2 cup reduced fat mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat olive oil in pan and add green peppers, mushrooms and onions. Saute until soft and then add garlic, oregano and salt and pepper. Stir together and set aside. In an 8x8 pan add the grilled chicken. Slather chicken evenly with dijon mustard. Take warm vegetables and top chicken. Cover vegetables and chicken with reduced fat cheese. Cook in the oven until the cheese is melted.
