Mushroom-Herb Chicken

Ingredients:

  • 4 (6 oz) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Cooking spray
  • 3 large shallots, peeled
  • 1 (8 oz) package presliced mushrooms
  • 1/3 C dry sherry
  • 1 tsp dried marjoram, crushed
  • Freshly ground black pepper (optional)

Directions:

  • Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/3-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet. Sprinkle chicken evenly with salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; coat with cooking spray. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to pan; cook 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until browned.

  • While chicken cooks, cut shallots vertically into thin slices. Remove chicken from pan. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add mushrooms and shallots to pan; coat vegetables with cooking spray. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in sherry and marjoram. Return chicken to pan; cover and cook 3 to 4 minutes or until mushrooms are tender and chicken is done. Transfer chicken to a platter. Pour mushroom mixture over chicken; sprinkle with freshly ground pepper, if desired. Serve immediately.
