2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

4. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 5-6 minutes until they start to brown.

5. Add the diced onions, minced garlic, and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

8. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top and return the skillet to the oven. Bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
