Eventually Chicken Soup

Yes.  That is what it is called.  Here’s the deal…I put some frozen boneless, skinless chicken breasts, a can of cream of mushroom soup, about 2 cups of frozen mixed vegetables, sea salt and fresh ground pepper in the crock pot before church and cooked it on high for about 4 hours.  When we got home it was like a chicken stew.  It was okay, but needed help.  The next night I added cilantro, a can of chopped green chilies and some farfalle pasta, some kosher salt and water and let it cook until the pasta was done.  Now that was good and it ended up being a soup.  We ate the last of it tonight–glad there was enough left to get a picture for our blog.

Ingredients:
4 frozen chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1 can cream of mushroom soup (I used Campbell’s Healthy Request)
1 1/2 – 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
1 small can chopped green chilies
Kosher salt
Fresh ground pepper
Fresh cilantro
1 1/2 cups farfalle pasta (bow tie)
water


1.  Place chicken breasts, soup, vegetables, salt and pepper in a crock pot.  Cook on high for 4 hours.


2.  Add chilies, cilantro, pasta and enough hot water to desired amount and cook until pasta is done.

Honey Chicken

 
This is one of my kids’ favorites! It can also be done in a little over an hour and has only 5 ingredients. WHO CAN BEAT THAT?! Don’t let the curry fool you. This recipe has a sweet, savory flavor that is fabulous on the tongue.
 
We serve this over rice with a little of the juice drizzled on top.
 
Ingredients:
1/4 C (1/2 stick) Butter, melted
1/2 C Honey
1/4 C Mustard (your favorite. We use regular ol’ French’s)
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Curry
3 – 5 Large Chicken Breasts
 
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. In a small bowl, mix first five ingredients.
3. Lay the Chicken in the bottom of a shallow baking dish.
4. Poor honey mixture over and bake, covered, for 1 hour.
 
 
 
 
 
 
NOTES:  I have used thawed or frozen chicken with little difference. You may have to adjust cooking time, but it really turns out the same. This is also GREAT in the crockpot!! 3-4 hours on Medium heat should do it.
