Ingredients

1 lb chicken breasts

8 oz mushrooms

1 tbsp olive oil

2 cloves garlic

¼ cup Parmesan cheese

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

½ tsp thyme


Directions

1.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with oil or cooking spray.

2.

Finely chop the mushrooms and garlic, then sauté them in olive oil over medium heat until the mushrooms are soft and the garlic is fragrant.

3.

Mix the sautéed mushrooms with Parmesan cheese, thyme, salt, and black pepper in a bowl, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.

4.

Carefully cut a pocket in each chicken breast and stuff them with an equal amount of the mushroom mixture, securing with toothpicks if necessary.

5.

Place stuffed chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish and cover with aluminum foil to keep them moist during baking.

6.

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 30 to 40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted.

7.

Remove the foil for the last 10 minutes of baking to allow the top to turn golden brown and the chicken to fully cook.
