I placed the chicken breasts in a casserole dish-thusly:

Then I made a sauce (looks gross, huh?)

Its made up of these things

  • 1 can cream of chicken soup (98% fat free)
  • 1/4 cup chopped up sun dried tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup chopped portabello mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp chopped garlic
  • 3 slices cooked bacon-chopped
  • 1/2 tsp sage
  • 1/2 tsp oregeno
  • 1/2 tsp roasted garlic red pepper spice (To be had at the soulard farmers market if you are in St. Louis)
  • 1/2 tsp basil
  • 3/4 cup water

Then pour the sauce over the chicken and bake at 350 for about 30 minutes

I served it with whole wheat buttered egg noodles

I think next time I will actually make on the stovetop so that I can brown the chicken and mushrooms and onions then simmer it with the sauce.
