1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 cup dry Marsala wine
1/3 cup chicken broth
1/3 cup shredded mozzarella or fontina cheese

Remove plastic wrap. Coat chicken lightly with flour.
In a 12-inch skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter or margarine over medium
heat; add half of the chicken pieces. Cook for 2 minutes on each side. Transfer
to a 2-quart rectangular baking dish. Repeat with another 1 tablespoon butter or
margarine and the remaining chicken pieces; transfer to dish.
Melt the remaining butter or margarine in the skillet. Add the mushrooms. Cook
and stir until tender; add wine, broth and a dash each of salt and pepper. Bring
to boiling; boil gently until mixture is reduced to1/2 cup including mushrooms
(about 5 minutes). Pour over chicken.
Combine mozzarella and parmesan cheeses and green onions; sprinkle over the
chicken. Bake uncovered in a 375� oven for 20 minutes.
