Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Repeat procedure with remaining chicken, adding three tablespoons melted butter. Reserve drippings in skillet.

SAUTE mushrooms in two tablespoons butter until tender. Drain and sprinkle evenly over chicken.

COMBINE cheeses, sprinkle over chicken and bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Place under broiler one to two minutes, or until lightly browned. 

SERVE with reserved sauce.
