Garlic Chicken

Garlic Chicken

 5-6 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast 
1 can cream of mushroom
½ pint whipping cream (the small one)
Garlic Salt
Paprika

I have made this chicken from raw and frozen and it tastes better if the chicken is raw.  Place chicken in casserole dish and sprinkle each chicken breast with garlic salt and paprika.  Flip the breasts over and repeat.

In a separate bowl mix the cream of mushroom and the whipping cream and spoon over the chicken.
Bake at 350 for 90 minutes.

This is excellent served over rice.

I double the sauce ingredients.

This would probably really yummy in the crock pot I just haven't done that yet.

Ritz Chicken

This recipe is a family fave and super easy.

Chicken Breasts
2 sleeves of Ritz crackers
a bit of olive oil

Drizzle a couple tablespoons of olive oil in a bowl (enough to coat chicken).  Crush crackers I use a food processor but you could put them in a bag and crush them with a rolling pin or something.  Then put them on a plate or dish.  Take chicken breast dip in olive oil and then coat chicken in cracker crust.  Then place on baking sheet.  Cook for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.

This is a very moist yummy chicken breast.  ENJOY!
