This recipe was inspired by two of my favorite restaurant recipes. The Chicken Costaletta at The Cheese Cake Factory and Pollo Rosa Maria Chicken from Carrabbas Italian Grill.  I love a good lemon butter sauce. So I decided I would come up with my own.

Butterfly your chicken breast so that you have 4 think breasts of chicken.
Start grilling your chicken on a low- med heat.
Juice lemon into a large saute pan and med heat.

Add mushrooms and garlic and let simmer for only 1 minute.
Remove mushrooms and add them to a smaller sauce pan with 1/4 cup of butter.
Saute the mushrooms in the butter.

Add whipping cream to lemon juice in the large sauce pan. whisk together.
Add in 1/2 cup of butter a tablespoon at a time. Continue to whisk together.
When chicken is cooked through add it to the lemon butter sauce.

Cover the chicken with cheese and mushrooms.
Cover ingredients with a lid and let cook on med heat for 5-10 minutes.
Serve with rice and vegetables.

The second day we had leftovers so I cut up the chicken and mixed it with the lemon butter sauce rice and peas and we ate it like a casserole. This was very delicious too.
