4 cups (1/4-inch-thick) sliced cremini mushrooms (about 8 ounces)
3 1/2 cups (1/4-inch-thick) sliced chanterelle mushrooms (about 8 ounces)
1/3 cup finely chopped shallots
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, divided

Cooking spray
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded fontina cheese
1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
