Cheesy Crock Pot Chicken


I am so excited that I actually have two successful entrees now under my belt. I really don't know why I haven't done this sooner. It's so simple to make great meals with very little in a dorm room! My latest endeavor has been cheesy chicken. I was sure exactly how this was going to taste, but I decided to give it a try! I think it turned out pretty good. The chicken wasn't dry at all and it was just the right amount of cheesiness. It was a little too salty, but tat was actually my fault not the recipe's because I added too much salt. It wasn't too salty because it was still quite edible, just a little more salty than perfect. So here is the recipe and my cheesy chicken!


INGREDIENTS
3 boneless chicken breasts
salt
pepper
garlic powder
2 cans of condensed cream of chicken soup
1 can of condensed cheddar cheese soup

PREPARATION
First, wash your chicken. This is a very important step. Next, cut each chicken breast down the center so that you have 6 half breasts. Place all six half breasts in the bottom of the crock pot. next season them to your preference with the pepper, salt, and garlic powder. Make sure this is where you are careful and that you know what you like because i got a tid bit salt crazy. Next, in a separate bowl, pour both cans of the cream of chicken soup and the can of cheddar cheese soup and mix them together. Pour the soup mixture over the top of the chicken. That's it! Put your crock pot on low and let it cook 6 to 7 hours.

Like i said, this was super easy. When it was done, the chicken was almost shredded it was so moist. it was not dry at all. About 30 minutes before it was done, I made some rice and then poured my cheesy chicken over the top of it to make somewhat of a cheesy chicken casserole. It should definitely last me several meals even with my boyfriend eating it. He was the end of the pot roast from my last post. Anyway, this is a great option to keep for left overs which means less money spent on meals! If you have any suggestions on what I should cook next, let me know in a comment!

Happy Cooking!
