Topped with ooey-gooey shredded cheese, this tender skillet chicken from Teres Jones of Ashdown, Arkansas looks great and tastes even better. You'll get a kick out of its jalapeno zip.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (5 ounces each)
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup chopped onion
4 teaspoons chopped seeded jalapeno pepper
6 teaspoons butter, divided
1/4 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:
1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder; add the chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; set aside.
2. In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, saute the mushrooms, onion and jalapeno in 2 teaspoons butter until tender. Remove and keep warm.
3. Drain and discard marinade. In the same skillet, cook chicken in remaining butter over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Spoon vegetable mixture over each chicken breast; sprinkle with cheeses. Cover and cook for 1-2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 2 servings.
