Chicken Alfredo Zucchini Boats - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
    2 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-size pieces
    2 tablespoons butter
    1/4 cup chopped onion
    5 sliced fresh mushrooms
    1/4 cup bite-size broccoli florets
    1 (15 ounce) jar Classico(R) Creamy Alfredo Sauce
    ground black pepper to taste
    1 roma (plum) tomato, thinly sliced
    shredded mozzarella cheese
    1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
    Slice zucchini in half lengthwise and remove inner flesh with a small scoop or spoon leaving a 1/2-inch thick shell. Chop the zucchini flesh and reserve.
    Lightly oil a non-stick skillet and set over medium heat. Add chicken; cook and stir until beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from pan.
    Melt butter in skillet. Add onions, mushrooms, and broccoli. Cook and stir until onions are soft and broccoli is crisp tender, about 8 minutes. Add reserved zucchini flesh and chicken; continue to cook about 5 more minutes.
    Stir in the Alfredo sauce and bring to a low simmer; simmer 5 minutes. Season with pepper.
    Fill zucchini boats with Alfredo mixture; place on prepared baking sheet. Top with 1 tablespoon shredded mozzarella cheese, tomato slice, and Parmesan cheese.
    Bake until zucchini are tender and cheese has melted, about 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
