Angel Chicken

A delicious chicken recipe that is sure to please every family member and special enough when entertaining guests.

I love a good chicken recipe! This one is so easy! You can throw this in the oven and finish up homework with your kids. The sauce is addicting. I couldn’t keep my fingers out of it. 

This would pair so well with a fresh green salad, steamed veggies and a piece of buttery garlic bread. Can you imagine dipping the bread in the sauce? So good!

TIPS AND TRICKS

CHICKEN: Chicken breasts or thighs will both work in this dish. I used breasts this time but I think I would prefer thighs in the future. I just love a good, juicy thigh.

FROZEN: If all you have is frozen chicken, that’s fine, but you will have to increase cooking time to make up for it being frozen.

ITALIAN DRESSING MIX: This calls for the dried Italian dressing mix and not the Italian seasoning spice. Trust me, it makes a difference. You can find the dried dressing mix, right by the bottles of salad dressing.

VEGGIES: Wanting veggies? Go ahead and throw in your favorites. It will take it up a level! I would suggest, broccoli, peas, corn, or even mushrooms.

PASTA: The dish is named because of the pasta I used. but go ahead and use what pasta you have on hand. You can also top mashed potatoes, or rice with the chicken mixture.

STORAGE: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. It should stay good up to 4 days. You can freeze this meals too. It will stay good up to 3 months.

Ingredients

• 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• ¼ cup butter
• 1 (.7 ounce) package dry Italian-style salad dressing mix
• 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
• ½ cup chicken broth
• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 1 (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta, cook according to package

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Arrange chicken breasts in a single layer in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2. Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Stir in dressing mix, then stir in condensed soup and wine. Add cream cheese; cook and stir, without boiling, until smooth and heated through. Pour over chicken.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
4. About 15 minutes before the chicken is finished, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add angel hair pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain.
5. Serve chicken and sauce over pasta.
