So I decided to make something in the crock pot today since my oven was being used to make fruit leather (post to come later about that). I found a great new recipe which I doctored up a bit. It turned out really good except my chicken was a little dry. the flavor of the sauce was great and would great just with pasta by itself! Here is the recipe:
Chicken with Bacon Mushroom Sauce:
4-5 chicken breast (boneless, skinless)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 cup sour cream
2 small cans of mushrooms (optional: we love mushrooms so this was my addition)
2-6 strips of bacon (depending on your taste. I added two while it was cooking and then added 4
more to the sauce afterwards)
Noodles or Rice
Place chicken in crockpot (frozen or thawed....I would do frozen next time, I think that is why mine was dry). Mix together cream of mushroom soup and sour cream (this is where I added the mushrooms and 2 strips of bacon). Pour over the top of chicken and cook on low for 4-5 hours until chicken is done.
Then I took all of the sauce out and placed it in a pan on the stove to thicken it up. It becomes quite runny from cooking. I started with 2 teaspoons of cornstarch and 2 teaspoons of water to thicken the sauce. You can add more or less depending on how thick you want your sauce. Serve with noodles or rice. Next time I want to try it with egg noodles but I was out of them! ENJOY!!
