Recipe: Brie Stuffed Mushroom Chicken

Trust me, this is one that will be thoroughly enjoyed. While it isn't exactly a frugal recipe, you can often find brie marked down to under $3 near it's end date. I bought a large wheel for $1.49 when I made this recipe, and had plenty left over for cheese and crackers.

brie
12 oz fresh sliced mushrooms
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
olive oil

Saute the mushrooms in a generous serving of olive oil. Put aside, and preheat the oven at 350 degrees.


Slice the brie into thin quarter inch wide slices.

Next flatten the chicken breasts either using a mallet or a plastic covered rolling pin. If you have very thicken chicken breasts, you may just want to make a slit in the thickest part.

Take the flattened chicken and wrap it around a thin slice of the brie. (If you made slits, stuff the brie in the slit)


Place them in a glass baking dish and drizzle with olive oil.


Cover with the sauteed mushrooms, and bake for 25-30 minutes.


This goes great with asparagus!
