From Sloane Taylor

Now that the holiday madness is almost over it’s time for a little comfort food. My daughter Dru, who is a wonderful cook, offered this easy dinner. She is creative in her use of herbs and spices and never fails to come up with a mouthwatering meal that is easy to prepare. This is one of our favorites. Studs and I have prepared many times and will many times more.

DRU’S CHICKEN DINNER

½ lb. boneless chicken breasts or tenders

½ tsp. garlic powder

½ tsp. onion powder

½ tsp. dried sage

¼ tsp. dried thyme

1 tbsp. olive oil

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 cup chicken stock, may need a little more

2 cups Minute White Rice

1 small broccoli crown cut into flowerets

Sliced baby bella or white mushrooms to taste

If using breasts, pound them thin between two sheets of waxed paper. Use tenders right from package.

Sprinkle seasonings onto chicken.

Pour oil in a frying pan and heat on medium until is shimmers. Add chicken. Fry until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, turn, and cook the other side the same way. remove chicken from pan to a plate and set aside.

Stir chicken stock into hot pan and scrape in any brown bits from the bottom and sides of the pan.

Add soup, mix well, the bring to a boil.

Stir in rice and broccoli. Turn heat to medium low. Place chicken on top, cover and let simmer about 5 minutes.
