The reason why....

A few years ago I made the New Year's resolution to try a new recipe each week to encourage more creativity in my cooking. At the time I was newly married and wanted to change what I cooked. What I learned is that I love to cook and I especially love to try new things....even if they don't turn out or I don't like the taste. At least I accomplished something...

Chicken with a Twist

I've been fighting a bug since New Year's Day and have been searching for something like chicken noodle soup to soothe my cold.  Needless to say, I found it, but of course, I had to change it up a little bit.  The original recipe is below and read on to see how I altered it.  The good news, it's scaled for two people.

From Crockpot Cooking:

Baked Chicken Breasts

2-3 chicken breasts
2 T butter
1 10.75oz can cream of chicken soup
1/2 C dry sherry
1 t tarragon or rosemary
1 t Worcestershire sauce
1/4 t garlic powder
1 4oz can sliced mushrooms, drained

Combine everything except chicken in crock pot.  Add chicken and coat on all sides.  Cover and cook on low for 5-7 hours.

I replaced the cream of chicken with cream of potato, dry sherry for 1/4 c white wine and 1/4 milk and 1 T Worcestershire.  I also omitted the mushrooms.

I put everything in the crock pot and cooked on high for 2 hours and it was pretty good.

Stomach Factor: milk
Time Factor: quick
