  • Cut a horizontal cross section into each breast, forming a pocket.
  • Mix feta cheese, portobello mushrooms, oregano, and garlic together in a small bowl. Stuff 1/2 of the feta mixture into each chicken breast.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, cover, and cook until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Flip and continue to cook, covered, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 170 degrees F (77 degrees C), 7 to 10 more minutes.
  • Remove the cover and brown chicken until a bit crispy, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
  • Add chicken broth, lemon juice, and butter to the skillet. Bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Serve hot broth mixture over the stuffed chicken.
