Baked Chicken Pasta

So I'm really excited to share this recipe with you because I was kind of just messing around with another recipe I found online and this actually turned out great!! Not only was it easy, but it turned out so savory and delicious.

Ingredients:
1-1.5 lbs Thin Sliced Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast Fillets
1 package garlic and herb OR italian bread bread crumbs
2 Beaten Eggs
2 tablespoons minced garlic (I usually use the jarred one)
1 package sliced mushrooms
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 package of wide egg noodles
4 tablespoons butter
1 can chicken broth
1 can cream of mushroom

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
1) Melt Butter in a skillet and add minced garlic.
2) Once the garlic is browned, add mushrooms and sautee for 3- 5 minutes for flavor
Browning the chicken
3) Place the mushrooms in a rectangular baking dish

4) Coat chicken breasts with egg then roll in bread crumbs. Cover completely.
5) Melt butter in same skillet used for mushrooms (gives the chicken a nice flavor). Brown both sides of chicken breasts. (Do not burn. A nice dark brown color will give it good flavor. Should only take a couple minutes on each side)
6) Place browned chicken on top of mushrooms in baking dish.

7) Cover chicken and mushrooms with broth and cream of mushroom.
8) Bake in oven for about 30 minutes or until juices run clear.
Straight from the oven
9) About 10 minutes before taking it out of the oven, add mozzarella cheese on top. It should melt nicely over the chicken.

10) Let cool for about 15 minutes.
Serve with cooked egg noodles.

This might not be the healthiest recipe that I've put on here, but it sure is yummy! You can choose to add some vegetables into this dish..I imagine some onions or green peppers would give it a nice touch. Perhaps I'll try that next time.

Good luck and enjoy!

Finished product. Yum!
