Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat add the butter & olive oil.
2 Tablespoons butter, 2 Tablespoons olive oil
Next, add the chicken breast to the pan and brown each side of the chicken and place in 9x13 inch baking dish. (You won't be cooking the chicken all the way through. Just browning the outside)
To the hot skillet, add the chicken broth and scrape all the bit off the bottom of the pan as it simmers.
1/2 cup chicken broth
Add the mushrooms, onions & garlic to the pan and simmer until tender.
8 ounces mushrooms, 1 small onion, thinly sliced, 2 cloves garlic, diced small
Add the mushroom mixture over the top of the chicken.
Then, add the cheese to the top of the chicken and mushrooms.
1 cup mozzarella cheese
Bake for 15-20 mins uncovered until the chicken is cooked through. (Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the cooked chicken is 165F.)
