Deadline Dinner – Herbed Chicken

My husband and I used to have a joke about dinner. He'd call me on his way home, and instead of asking what was for dinner, he'd ask what kind of chicken we were having. I love chicken because it can be prepared so many different ways!

Ingredients:
• Cooking spray
• 4 skinless chicken breast fillets
• 1 can of condensed cream of chicken soup
• 1/2 cup of milk
• Splash of Worcestershire sauce
• A pinch each of rosemary and thyme

Directions:
Spray pan with cooking spray.
Brown chicken in the pan on medium-high heat. Remove the ckicken.
In a medium bowl, mix the soup, milk, Worcestershire sauce, and herbs.
Pour the soup mix into the pan and bring to a simmer on low heat.
Put the chicken back into the pan and cover. Cook for approximately 5 to 10 minutes or until done.

Serve with rice cooked in chicken broth and seasonings and a steamed vegetable.
