From Cupboard to Cupboard Weekend Challenge #1~ Ooey Gooey Baked Chicken

Grab my button ------>

Hey everyone!  I have been so excited about the FCtC Weekend Challenge since I made up my mind last week to do it!  I have looked and looked thru my recipes trying to decide which one to use!  A dear friend of mine sent me this awesome recipe and it's been on my to-do list!  So, I decided that there wasn't a better time than NOW to cook it up... OOEY GOOEY BAKED CHICKEN!  Doesn't that name just make your mouth water?  Well, just you wait until you get a nice wift of the aromas coming from the oven while it's cooking!  Can I just say AMAZING?!  This recipe is one that can really be changed up, fancied up, or just followed exactly!  I'm home alone tonight, so I actually made this, kept some and sent the rest home with my friend for her family's dinner.  Oh My Goodness!  I enjoyed every single bite of mine, served on a bed of brown rice.  Please feel free to change up the recipe to suit you and your family!  Take a picture (my pics do not serve this chicken justice!) and post the picture with changes you made, changes you might make next time, how you and your family liked it, etc.. on your blog.  Add my button to your blog to let all your readers know where to come for the recipe and many many more to come! Make sure you add your link to your blog at the bottom of this post.  I want to see all of your ideas! I can't wait to see what you all come up with!

printable recipe

1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup flour
1 1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp basil
1/2 tsp garlic salt (I used California Style)
GET CREATIVE!  ADD A FEW DASHES OF GARLIC POWDER, ONION POWDER OR YOUR FAVORITE HERBS!
2 cans evaporated milk
4 whole chicken breasts cut into strips...
I USE BONELESS/SKINLESS CHICKEN BREASTS BUT USING CHICKEN WITH SKIN MAY MAKE IT EVEN MORE MOIST...
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 cup water


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Pour melted butter into 9x13 baking dish.  In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, pepper, basil and whatever your favorite dry spice is.  In a separate shallow dish, add 1 can evaporated milk.  Coat chicken strips in evaporated milk then dredge in flour mixture.  Place in prepared baking dish.  Bake uncovered 35 minutes.  Remove from oven and turn chicken.  In a small bowl, combine soup, water and the 1 remaining can evaporated milk.  Pour over chicken.  Return to oven and bake for an additional 35 minutes.  Remove chicken from baking dish... whisk gravy in baking dish until smooth.  Serve chicken and gravy over rice or even a bed of egg noodles.  You can also add shredded cheese to the soup mixture!  YUMMY!!!!

I can't wait to hear from you!!!

Happy Cooking!
