This Chick's for You, Alex

My friend Alex is discovering the wonderful world of crockpots. I'm so proud of him! So, in honor of his new venture, I'm posting this simple, yet elegant chicken dish. This would be great with a nice garden salad and garlic bread. You come home to a complete main dish, spend a few minutes on the salad while the bread is toasting, and THAT is it! How much better does it get?

Crockpot Chicken and Mushrooms

Approximatley 1 lb. chicken breasts
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 clove garlic, minced
Parsley to taste
As many of your favorite mushrooms to taste

Season the chicken with the lemon juice, pepper, salt, and garlic powder. Place them in the crockpot. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the soups, mushrooms, parsley, and garlic. Pour the sauce over chicken and cook on low 6 to 8 hours, or on high 3 to 4 hours.

This would also be excellent over a bed of egg noodles. But, as always, this is versatile enough that you can serve it to suit your needs.

Happy eating, Alex!
