Cheesy Garlic Butter Mushroom Stuffed Chicken

Ingredients:
– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup mushrooms, finely chopped
– 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 3 tablespoons butter
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon dried parsley
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– Fresh parsley, for garnish
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
3. Add the chopped mushrooms, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Cook until mushrooms are browned and any moisture has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.
4. In a bowl, mix the cooked mushrooms with cream cheese and mozzarella cheese until well combined.
5. Carefully cut a pocket into each chicken breast and stuff it with the mushroom cheese mixture.
6. Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a greased baking dish and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
8. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
