Ingredients
  

Chicken:
  • 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (use smaller breasts for a lighter serving)
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning for a savory flavor
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted for browning the chicken
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil to cook the chicken
Sauce:
  • 10.5 oz. cream of chicken soup for a rich base
  • 1 ½ cups milk to create a creamy consistency
  • 1 cup sour cream at room temperature (adds creaminess)
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder for added depth of flavor
  • 1 oz. packet Ranch seasoning mix not dip mix for the correct flavor

Method
 

  1. Slice the chicken breasts into 2-3 thinner pieces, aiming for about ½ inch thickness. Use a meat tenderizer if needed.
  2. Pat the chicken dry, then season both sides with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Brush one side of each piece with melted butter.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add the cream of chicken soup, milk, sour cream, onion powder, and Ranch seasoning. Stir to combine.
  5. Allow the sauce to simmer gently for 5 minutes, letting it reduce and thicken.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over it. Partially cover the skillet and cook for an additional 10 minutes, letting the chicken absorb the flavors.
  7. Optional: Serve with baked potatoes and vegetables, spooning the sauce over the potatoes.
