Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Italian dressing
1 tablespoon Greek seasoning, or to taste
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon white cooking wine
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon garlic salt
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
salt to taste
2 (4 ounce) cans whole green chili peppers, drained, and sliced lengthwise
4 ounces sliced Havarti cheese with dill

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Marinate chicken in Italian dressing and Greek seasoning in a bowl, at least 30 minutes.
Place chicken in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle top with additional Greek seasoning.
Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink in center and juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until bubbling. Pour in wine, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic salt; bring to a boil. Stir in mushrooms; reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until mushrooms are tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Seasoning mixture with salt.
Arrange green chili peppers lengthwise and Havarti cheese on top of chicken. Return to the oven and bake until cheese has melted, about 5 minutes. Top chicken with mushrooms and pan juices.
