Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
Prepare the Chicken:
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece in flour, shaking off any excess.
Cook the Chicken:
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. You may need to do this in batches. Transfer the cooked chicken to the prepared baking dish, overlapping the pieces slightly.
Sauté the Mushrooms:
In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the mushrooms and cook until they are soft and browned, about 5 minutes. Spread the mushrooms evenly over the chicken.
Make the Sauce:
Add the Marsala wine and chicken broth to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer and let the sauce reduce by half, about 5 minutes. Pour the sauce over the chicken and mushrooms in the baking dish.
Add Cheese:
Sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the chicken.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10-15 minutes.
Garnish and Serve:
Garnish the Chicken Lombardy with chopped green onions before serving. This dish pairs wonderfully with pasta, rice, or a simple salad.
