With working nights, it is really nice to just throw things into my crock pot and then not really have to do anything else. For Christmas my mom gave all the girls a fix and forget bible. 1400 recipes-so I thought I would share some as I try them. The boys really enjoyed the Delicious Chicken recipe that I tried on Thursday. So here it is:
Delicious Chicken
makes 6 servings
cooks 8-10 hrs
ideal crock pot size: 4-5qt
3 whole chicken breast, skin removed and halved
10 3/4 oz can cream of chicken soup
1/2c cooking sherry
4-oz can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp dried tarragon or dried rosemary
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1. Place chicken in slow cooker.
2. Mix remaining ingredients and pour over chicken breasts, making sure all pieces are glazed with sauce.
3. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hrs, or on high 4-5hrs.
4. Serve over mash potatos or noodles.
Now, anyone who know me well- knows that I am not really the follow the recipe exactly kinda girl. So, I tweaked it slightly. First no mushrooms in my crock pot! I didn't like the idea of rosemary/tarragon w/the cream of chicken soup. So, I did the basic salt, pepper, onion and a little more garlic. We had ours over noodles. Lucas who is a pretty slow eater had his bowl clean in less that 10min! Wow! But that might have had something to do w/the crescent rolls that were coming out of the oven. The boys gave this 3 thumbs up
This week I am gonna try a Honey "Baked" Chicken. Lucas is really wanting some pizza. Too bad I can't throw all the stuff for that into the crock pot!

I am glad you are able to find some recipes to use. I usually put something in the crock pot for mom and dad. Today I put scalloped potatoes on the bottom, browned pork chops, and then corn on the cob. I hope it is good for them. When I read through the recipe I first thought Rachel- mushrooms, but you explained. I wouldn't put the rosemary or tarragon in with the cream sauce. They are both pretty strong. What is great about the crock pot is you can put in on in the morning and then know dinner is ready when you get up.
