- 1 Package Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast 2-3 breasts - cut in half
- 6 Carrots
- 6 Mushrooms Cut in quarters
- 1/2 Onion (optional)
- 1 can Golden Mushroom Soup You can use chicken broth if preferred, but the gravy won't be as thick. Still tastes great!
- Butter
- Salt + Pepper
Brown one side of chicken in butter with salt and pepper
Flip chicken, and add vegetables (mushrooms, carrots, onions)
In a medium bowl, mix golden mushroom soup with 1/2 can - 1 can of water (the less water you use the thicker the gravy, but you'll have to check on it while cooking to be sure it has enough liquid)
Cover. Turn stove to just above low. Simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours - until chicken is fork tender and carrots are fully cooked
Serve over buttered and salted wide egg noodles or rice. Use the sauce as a gravy
If the gravy isn't thick enough, you can simmer uncovered to cook it down a little
