What's for Dinner? Day 92

Tonight we had company.

And lucky Carrie, she got to try one of our new recipes :)

Country Club Chicken

Find it here with lots of lovely picture and step by step instructions.

1 lb spaghetti

4 chicken breasts (I used 2 big Costco ones and cut them in half lengthwise)

1 large onion

7 oz fresh mushrooms

2 cans Campbell's cream of mushroom soup

4-5 slices bacon

1/4 cup dry white wine (I used chicken broth)

2/3 cup sharp cheddar

1 apple

butter or oil

salt and pepper

Mince the onion.  Clean and slice the mushrooms.  Peel and mince the apple (or wash it well).  Mine was a Granny Smith.  Season the chicken breasts with a generous amount of salt and pepper.

Cook the bacon and drain it on a paper towel.  Add some butter and quickly brown the chicken breasts on both sides.  Transfer them to a casserole.

Cook the onions for 3 minutes before adding the mushrooms.  Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and give it all 3 minutes, add the minced apple and cook for another 3  minutes.  Pour in the chicken broth and soup and stir in the grated cheddar.

Pour the sauce over the chicken breasts.  Put the casserole in a preheated oven at 350F for 25-30 minutes.  Until the chicken is super tender and the sauce is all hot and bubbly.

Cook the spaghetti in salted water according to the directions on your package.  Put the spaghetti in a bowl, place the chicken on top and pour the sauce all over.  Serve with extra vegetables on the side.

I thought it was good.

We got thumbs up all around--even our guest :)

But I don't think the kids really liked it that much :)

They think that they will hurt my feelings sometimes if they give less than a thumbs up.  I have been trying to let them know it is OK to not like it.
