Cream Of Chicken Soup Chicken Breasts
This 30-minute cream of chicken soup chicken breasts recipe is perfect for busy people! It has tender pan-fried chicken, vegetables, and a delicious creamy sauce.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breasts boneless skinless
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter divided
- 1/2 medium onion chopped
- 1 heaping cup frozen mixed vegetables
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
- Chopped parsley optional, to taste
Instructions
- Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make 4 thinner cutlets. Season them with the salt & pepper and garlic powder.
- Add the olive oil and half the butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is nice and hot, add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes/side until golden, then transfer it to a plate.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining butter and the onions to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring fairly often, or until they're softened and lightly browned.
- Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables and Italian seasoning, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often.
- Add the chicken broth and condensed soup to the pan and stir until smooth.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the chicken back in, along with the juices left on the plate. Cook for another 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (165F) and the vegetables are softened to your liking. If the sauce thickens up too much, add a splash of chicken broth or water.
- Season with more salt & pepper if needed and sprinkle the parsley on top if using, then serve.
Notes
- Condensed soup can be salty, so use low-sodium alternatives if needed (e.g. low sodium chicken broth), and go easy on adding any salt at the end before you taste it.
