  • Total Time: 50-60 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

For the Marinade:

  • ½ cup Dijon mustard
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

For the Chicken:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 ½ pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups shredded Colby Jack cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade:
    In a small bowl, combine Dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise, and lemon juice. Set aside ¼ cup of the marinade in a covered container in the refrigerator for serving.

  2. Marinate the Chicken:
    Place the chicken breasts in a large plastic zipper-top bag. Pour the remaining marinade over the chicken and ensure it’s evenly coated. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or overnight for deeper flavor.

  3. Cook the Chicken:
    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large oven-proof skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat until the foam subsides. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove mushrooms and set aside. In the same skillet, heat olive oil and cook the marinated chicken breasts for about 5 minutes per side until golden-brown crust forms.

  4. Add the Toppings:
    Top each chicken breast with sautéed mushrooms and shredded Colby Jack cheese. Cover the skillet and transfer it to the oven.

  5. Bake:
    Bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

  6. Garnish and Serve:
    Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve with the reserved marinade on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Cheese Alternatives: Swap Colby Jack cheese for cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss cheese for a different cheesy flavor.
  • Vegetable Options: Add spinach, zucchini, or onions for extra flavor and texture.
  • Add Heat: Drizzle some sriracha or sprinkle red pepper flakes on top for extra spice.
