Ingredients

8 ounces cremini mushrooms
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium-sized white or sweet onion
1 shallot
2 garlic cloves crushed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 small sprig of fresh rosemary or 1/4 teaspoon dried
2 sprigs of fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano or 1/4 teaspoon dried
2-2.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts or chicken breast cutlets
1 can semi-condensed or condensed cream of mushroom soup
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

Slice the mushrooms, then chop the shallot and onion.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil, diced onion, chopped shallot, crushed garlic cloves, sliced mushrooms, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and oregano. Sauté for 10-12 minutes, until softened and fragrant.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. If using chicken tenders, keep them whole. Or, if using chicken breasts, cut them in half lengthwise. Season both sides with salt and pepper, then add the chicken to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
Stir everything together, then add the cream of mushroom soup and low-sodium chicken broth. Mix well and let simmer uncovered over medium-low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally so the chicken doesn’t stick. The sauce will thicken slightly as it cooks.
Top with fresh flat-leaf parsley and enjoy warm.

Cream of Mushroom Soup: We used Amy’s Semi-Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup in this recipe. If you don’t like cream of mushroom soup, try any cream soup you enjoy. Some other great options are cream of celery, cream of broccoli, and cream of potato soup.
