Chicken Gloria

Chicken Gloria

6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
Salt & Pepper to taste
1/3 cup all purpose flour
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 Tbsp butter
8-oz container sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 cup cream sherry
1 Tbsp chicken bouillon granules
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 can water
1/2 can half and half
6 slices Muenster or Swiss cheese
Chopped fresh parsley to garnish

Heat oven to 350^F.

Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.  Spoon flour into a shallow dish and coat both sides of chicken.  Shake off excess.

In a large skillet heat the vegetable oil over medium high heat.  Brown chicken on both sides.  You don't need to cook the chicken completely since it will finish in the oven.  Transfer the chicken to a 9x13" baking dish.

Melt the butter in the skillet.  Add the mushrooms and cook until golden brown.  Stir in the sherry and cook 1-2 minutes.  Add the chicken bouillon granules, mushroom soup, water and half and half; mix well.  Cook until thoroughly heated.

Pour mushroom sauce over chicken; top each chicken piece with a slice of cheese.  Fold the cheese in half if it's too wide for the chicken pieces.  Cover the dish with foil and bake for 35-40 minutes.  Remove pan from oven and turn on the broiler.  Remove foil and place the pan under the broiler for 1-2 minutes to brown the cheese a bit.  Remove from oven and set aside to cool for about 5 minutes.  Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

This is great over rice!  I found the recipe on Pinterest and added a couple things and it is really good!
