New recipe

I don't like to cook. When I try a new recipe, it usually fails. However, once in a while, I score!

I tried a new recipe last week and SCORED! K girl even ate some. So I will share what I made. I saw a recipe in Taste of Home's Quick Cooking and adapted it to us (that's an even bigger deal for me; that's usually how I mess up a new recipe)

So here is how I made it.
Chicken with Onion Gravy
1 pkg chicken tenders (Tyson all cut up and ready to go)
1 pkg onion soup mix (the dry kind)
1 can chicken broth
16 ounces 1/2 and 1/2
flour, garlic salt, and cracked black pepper
EVOO

In a gallon ziplock bag, mix flour (enough for the amount of chicken that you have), garlic salt and pepper (to your taste). Place chicken in bag and coat.

In a large pan, heat EVOO. Cook chicken in pan just long enough to start getting brown (they won't be cooked the entire way through). Remove chicken from pan.

In the bottom of the same pan, carefully pour in the broth. Whisk all the bits up off the bottom of the pan. Pour in soup; mix well. Slowly pour in 1/2 and 1/2. Once it is all combined, add chicken back to the pan. Stir often. Cook until chicken is cooked through.

I served this with mashed tatoes (pre-made Bob Evans brand) and Sis Shubert rolls (YUMMY huh sissy?). K loved the mashed tatoes! She helped "make" them and ate 2 helpings. I figured out that if she helps, she's more willing to eat it. The gravy that the chicken cooked in was wonderful over the tatoes. The only thing--the house smelled like onions for a long time afterwards!

Yumm Sister Schubert rolls. I'll have to look at my "new" Walmart next time Stanley and I go to see if they have them there. Sounds like a good recipe. Maybe we will try it when Mom is here.
