Chicken Gloria
Chicken Gloria has tender chicken, mushrooms, onions, and garlic in a thick and rich sherry cream sauce, then topped with muenster cheese. Baked until hot and melted, this casserole is total comfort food!
Ingredients
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, 8-ounces each
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
8 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 medium or half a large, sweet onion, cut into strips (see Cooking Tip in the post above)
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/4 cup dry sherry wine
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken stock
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
8 ounces Muenster cheese, sliced
Instructions
- Take each chicken breast half and butterfly it, then cut each butterflied piece in half to yield eight 4-ounce pieces.
- In a bowl, mix one cup of all-purpose flour with salt and pepper.
- Dredge each piece of chicken in the seasoned flour and place on a plate while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Do not discard the flour.
- Spray a 9×13 inch casserole dish with non-stick spray and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- After all the ingredients are measured, cut and prepped, take each piece of chicken and dredge a second time in the seasoned flour and set back on the plate. Dispose of this flour.
- In a large saute pan, melt half the butter with half the oil over medium high heat.
- Add four chicken pieces and brown on both sides for about 2-3 minutes then remove to the prepared casserole dish.
- Add remaining chicken and again, brown and add to the casserole dish.
- Discard the used fat from the pan and wipe the pan clean with paper towels.
- Heat two tablespoons of butter with one tablespoon of oil over high heat.
- Once hot and frothy, add the mushrooms and cook to brown, about 5-8 minutes. Scrape the cooked mushrooms over the browned chicken.
- Add the remaining butter and oil and over medium high heat, cook the onions for three minutes. Add garlic and cook for one minute.
- Add the sherry and cook to evaporate.
- Reduce to medium heat and add three tablespoons of flour and stir and cook for two minutes.
- Add the chicken stock and stir and cook for two more minutes.
- Add the heavy cream and heat just until hot and bubbling.
- Pour this mixture over the chicken and mushrooms then top with the Muenster cheese slices.
- Spray a piece of parchment paper with non-stick spray and place sprayed-side-down over the cheese then cover and foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- Uncover and broil to brown the top and serve.
