Campbells Soups to the Rescue!!!

When you get to the grocery store, stop in the soup aisle and find some of the soups that you and/or your boyfriend enjoy. They have recipes on the back using the soup and typically chicken or pork. Then just grap the other ingredients listed and viola!

The recipes are usually really easy adn quick, less than an hour to make.

I Hope this helps!!!....JD

Chicken Breasts Piccata

2 large lemons
2 large garlic cloves
2 tablespoons minced parsley
4 chicken cutlets (1 to 1 1/4 pounds, or 4 to 5 ounces each)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup dry sherry
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons capers
2 tablespoons butter

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Slice 1 of the lemons into 8 thin slices. From the remaining lemon, squeeze 1/4 cup juice. Mince the 2 garlic cloves. Mince enough fresh parsley to measure 2 tablespoons; reserve the parsley, covered with a damp paper towel.

Season the chicken cutlets on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge the cutlets in the 1/4 cup flour. In a 12-inch nonstick sauté pan or skillet, heat the 4 tablespoons oil over high heat until hot. Add the chicken and sauté it 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Transfer the cutlets to a platter, cover, and keep warm.

Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook, stirring, 30 seconds, being careful not to let it brown. Add the 1/2 cup sherry, 1/4 cup lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons capers and combine, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release the browned bits. Reduce the sauce over medium-high heat by half, stirring occasionally. Remove the pan from the heat and add the 8 lemon slices. Keep warm, covered.

Have your rice boiling also.
Serve the chicken on the tortillas with a side of rice. You can mix some cheese and taco sauce into the rice.

Put 4 chicken breasts in a casserole dish, cover with a mixture of cream of mushroom and milk, add a layer of shredded cheese (cheddar), and then a layer of a box of stuffing any falvor, drizzle that with 1 stick of melted butter. Bake at 345 for 30 minutes.
