Directions

Method written by CompKitchen from the ingredient list. Not the original author's method, not kitchen-tested.

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. Cook the chicken breasts for 5 to 6 minutes per side, until the thickest part reaches 165°F (74°C). Transfer to a plate.

  3. Reduce heat to medium. Whisk the condensed cream of chicken with herbs soup and the milk in the same skillet until smooth, scraping up any browned bits.

  4. Simmer the sauce for 2 minutes, stirring, until it is hot and slightly thickened.

  5. Return the chicken and any juices to the skillet. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and simmer 2 to 3 minutes more, until the chicken is hot throughout.

  6. Serve the chicken and sauce over the broth simmered rice.
