Equipment

  • large non-stick pan

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 8 ounces brown mushrooms sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 4 chicken breasts skinless and boneless
  • Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 8 slices mozzarella cheese

Creamy sauce

  • 2 large cloves garlic minced or finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon gluten-free flour
  • 1 cup almond milk Do not use sweetened almond milk
  • ½ cup fresh Parmesan cheese finely grated
  • Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped

Instructions
 

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms.
  • Sauté stirring occasionally until mushrooms are tender. Lightly season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Cut a lengthwise pocket into each chicken breast. Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
  • Stuff the pockets with mozzarella cheese and sautéed mushrooms, sealing with a toothpick.
  • Heat the pan again, add remaining oil, and sear chicken until golden on both sides (about 6-8 minutes).
  • To the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for no longer than 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add Dijon mustard, gluten-free flour, and whisk. Pour in almond milk slowly while whisking to form a thick sauce.
  • Stir in Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. Add any leftover sautéed mushrooms and juices now.
  • Return the chicken to the pan, spoon the sauce over, cover, and cook over low heat for 12-15 minutes.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

Almond milk can be substituted with any non-dairy milk. Be cautious not to use sweetened almond milk. Other oils, cheeses, and flours can be used as alternatives.
