RECIPE - Mushroom Soup Chicken

Okay, we have all done it, the old cut up chicken doused with cream of mushroom soup topped over rice.  Makes a decent meal, nothing fancy, but works.  Well, my recipe last night was a real crowd pleaser and actually had some decent taste to it.  If you get real crafty, one day try making your own mushroom soup for a topper instead of the canned stuff, it really isn't that hard and you would be using the freshest of ingrediants!  I'll add a another post on how to make your own "cream of" soups.

1 pckg of chicken breasts
1 can cream of mushroom reduced salt/healthy request soup
2 tbsp kraft mayo
1 cup parmesan cheese
2 tbsp olive oil
garlic powder
onion powder
salt
pepper
white or brown rice

Prepare your rice and let cook while you finish the chicken.  Cut up chicken into small bite size pieces.  Brown over medium high in a large non-stick skillet and have a lid for the skillet set to the side for later.  While in the pan, coat chicken with garlic, onion powders, salt and pepper.  Stir and add more seasoning.  While this cooks, mix together soup, mayo, parmesan cheese.  Once chicken is brown or at least not pink on all sides, cover with mixture, stir and put the lid on the skillet.  Let cook on medium to medium low for about 15-20 minutes until done, stir occasionally.

Top rice with chicken.  I grilled up some zucchini with salt/pepper for a side.  See - you can make your own Hungry Helper meal!
