Slow Cooker Cream-of-Mushroom Chicken with Rosemary

As part of my journey toward smarter food budgeting and more frequent home-cooked meals, I've implemented a weekly meal prep schedule. Every Sunday, I make large portions of protein and vegetables that can be mixed and matched for additional meals throughout the week.

This week's Sunday meal prep - Cream-of-Mushroom Chicken with Rosemary.

Ingredients:

5-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts (my go-to protein)

1 can cream of mushroom soup, 8oz. (I used the low-fat version)

Lemon juice

Seasonings: Rosemary, roasted garlic, onion powder, cracked black pepper, lemon pepper, parsley, dill

Optional: A pinch or two of salt, white cooking wine

Trim the chicken if needed and slice into bite-sized pieces. Coat the inside of your slow cooker with nonstick spray and load in the chicken. Add 1 can of cream of mushroom soup and about 2 tsp lemon juice. Stir together.

Add the seasonings, using the list above or your own preferences. Measure with your heart or to taste, but always use twice as much garlic as anything else and go light on the salt and cracked pepper. I used about 2 tbsp roasted garlic, 1 tbsp onion powder / lemon pepper / parsley, and 1/2 tbsp dill / cracked black pepper. I also picked a few sprigs of fresh rosemary and minced them for the pot. Dried rosemary works fine if you don't have any pet herbs in your house.

Stir everything together and add the wine or salt if you wish. Put the lid on your slow cooker, put it on LOW, and let it cook for about 90min. Check the chicken, give it a stir, and cut a large piece in half to see if it's done. If it's tender and done through and the juices run clear, turn off the pot. Be careful not to overcook the chicken or it will get tough. Serve right away with your favorite starch and seasonable vegetables.

This makes about 6 servings, or dinner for two with plenty of leftovers. I packed our leftover chicken (and the delicious self-made gravy) with some egg noodles and separate pods of roasted brussels sprouts. It goes equally well with rice or potatoes, if that's your preference.

Altogether, the whole dish took about 15min of prep time and about 90min to cook. Very easy and very quick, and it didn't take a lot of spoons...or dishes.

Give a try, hope you enjoy!
