Today, as you probably know by now, is Crockpot Wednesday and today of ALL days was a necessity! I do crockpot meals on Wednesdays because I take my son to park days on Wednesday and therefore am left with little to no time to cook. Letting my crockpot cook all day and coming home and adding some noodles or a veggie side is much easier than coming home and cooking a full meal before rushing off for church. Today, though, I had a field trip with my son in the morning....lunch with my son....and than park day. I never made it home. So, I put everything in the crockpot this morning and left instructions with my daughter on when and how to put it in later.
So, some of you may look at this title and say......mushrooms? YUCK!! Well, my husband and I love mushrooms...my kids not so much. I would say, make it with the mushrooms and than opt not to eat them if you so desire.
That being said....let me say one other thing (before getting to whether or not this is worth eating). Many people have said they do not like cooking chicken in a crockpot because it gets dried out. I generally do not have that problem (I use fully frozen breasts), and this recipe made the most moist chicken EVER.
Ok....well, that gave you a tip as to how good this tasted. To say that it was good is an understatement. It was moist and so flavorful. Everyone oooooed and aaaaaaed over how moist and flavorful the chicken was. The weird thing is...it is so simple. Hardly any ingredients. I love it!! It has been officially asked to make it into the repeat category and I have to agree.
So, how simple is this:
Take 3-4 chicken breasts (I use frozen) and place into the crockpot.
Sprinkle with a generous amount of garlic salt and pepper.
In a bowl, mix a can of cream of mushroom soup with a 1/4 cup of white wine or chicken broth. Now, I could have sworn I had some white wine, but no go so I used broth (low sodium, organic). I am hoping to try it next time with the wine cause I like how wine tastes in food (but I hate to drink it).
Distribute the mixture on top of the chicken.
Top this with sliced mushrooms.
Cook on low for 6-7 hours.
E-A-S-Y
I served this with mashed potatoes (that almost didn't get cooked in time in my rushed time frame), but they did and made a good compliment. I imagine the gravy would be good on the potatoes, but we were in a hurry (but not too much of a hurry to recognize yumminess. Plates were almost licked clean before everyone scooted out the door (well, almost everyone).
