Easy Chicken Dinner


Bob tried this meal after spotting the recipe in a grocery store circular a few years ago. The name of the dish is exactly as we found it in the paper - Easy Chicken Dinner. Our family joke is that the dinner isn't really all that easy. It's not complicated, but takes a little bit of time. But it's delicious comfort food that all of us enjoy.

Easy Chicken Dinner
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded until flat
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
1 16-ounce carton of sour cream
1 8-ounce package of mushrooms, sliced
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup flour
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Season flour with salt and pepper and dredge each chicken breast in flour mixture, coating well. Heat oil in a large skillet. Brown chicken on each side in hot oil and then place in a 13 x 9 x 2 baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Mix the soup, sour cream, mushrooms, milk and cheese together in a large bowl. Pour over chicken breasts and bake for one hour. Serve over steamed white rice. Serves 6 to 8.
