EASY CREAMY RANCH CHICKEN
One of the many things I love about having this website is being able to share easy meals with folks who really, really want to cook for their families, but often feel the pressure crunch of having the time (and energy) to do it at the end of the day. I love those go-to recipes that you can pretty much remember off the top of your head without having to refer to a laundry list of items or to constantly be pulling out your phone to check.
TIPS FOR MAKING THIS DINNER RECIPE:
With only 5 ingredients (and that is counting the oil for the pan), it doesn't get much easier than this. And the taste will definitely help you get out of any chicken-cooking rut you might be in. Y'all know what I'm talking about. We try to always find new ways to cook that boneless, skinless chicken breasts, right? You want more good news? You can make this lower in fat by using the lower fat options for the cream of Chicken soup as well as the milk. Serve it with mashed potatoes, rice or even egg noodles.

- 1 10.75 oz can cream of chicken soup
- ¾ cup milk

- In the skillet, add soup, milk, and ½ packet of dry ranch dressing mix.
- Whisk it together well until you get most of the lumps out.
- Bring mixture up to a boil to let it thicken. Add chicken back to skillet.
- Cover and reduce heat to low and allow the chicken to finish cooking for an additional 10 minutes (or until chicken is cooked through).
- Then serve!

Can I mix cream of chicken and cream of mushroom to double the recipe, but don't have enough cream of chicken?
Brandie @ The Country Cook
You sure can! As long as you like the flavor of cream of mushroom, you can certainly do that!
Leslie
Can I use regular ranch instead of a packet?
Brandie @ The Country Cook
I haven't tried it but I'm sure you could. Let me know if you try it and how it turned out!
Blesilda Baduria
Just what I was looking for. Simple but oh so good. Will definitely cook again. Thanks for the recipe!
Ray
Can you use cream of onion
Brandie @ The Country Cook
I don't see why not if that is something you like!

Now if you could come up with a low or no-sodium cream of chicken recipe, I'd be in hog heaven. Love the recipe, can't have the salt! I know that most of these recipes are for medium sized families. I'm an 80-year-old living alone but I still love to cook and eat. So I try to halve the recipe and freeze some for later. You've got a great thing going here -- applause for you!
