Chicken Lombardy is a creamy and flavorful dish featuring tender chicken breasts, sautéed mushrooms, and a rich cheese topping, perfect for a comforting meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then dredge them in flour, shaking off any excess.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and thyme, then return the chicken to the skillet.
  5. Sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the chicken. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  6. Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, substitute the heavy cream with half-and-half or a non-dairy alternative.
  • Add spinach or sun-dried tomatoes to the mushroom mixture for extra flavor and nutrition.
