Chicken Stroganoff

As a working Mom my crockpot is one of my best friends. It is so nice to be able to walk into the door after a busy day and have dinner waiting for us. This recipe is so simple and tastes SO good. This is comfort food at its best.

Chicken Stroganoff

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cubed

1/8 cup butter

3 TBS water

1 (.7 ounce) pkg dry Italian style dressing mix

1 (8 ounce) pkg cream cheese

1 (10.75 ounce) can cream of chicken soup

Put chicken, butter, water and dressing mix in slow cooker. Mix together and cook on low for 6 hours. Add cream cheese and soup. Mix together and cook on high for another 1/2 hour or until heated through. Serve over egg noodles, pasta or rice.

VARIATIONS:

Use fat free cream cheese and low fat soup

Cut the dressing mix by half if you are watching your sodium intake

Add a little bit of milk and/or sour cream to make a thinner sauce

Add a can of drained mushrooms while adding sauce ingredients

***You can also put frozen breasts straight into the crockpot. Just omit adding the water and you will have to shred your chicken at the end of cooking time.***
