90 minThis is the kind of weeknight casserole that feels like a warm hug on the plate.
Sliced potatoes go down first, then a layer of sweet Vidalia onions, followed by a blanket of cream of mushroom soup.
Browned chicken breasts get placed right on top with a sprinkle of paprika, the lid goes on, and the oven does the rest.
After an hour of covered baking, the potatoes are tender, the onions have melted into the creamy soup, and the chicken is juicy all the way through.
It serves two, making it the ideal dinner-for-two recipe when you want comfort food without a mountain of leftovers.
Kitchen Tips
- Brown the chicken breast well before layering. That golden crust adds flavor and keeps the top of the casserole from looking pale.
- Slice the potatoes thin and even so they cook through completely in the hour of baking time.
- Keep the lid on tight for the full cook. The steam is what makes everything tender and keeps the chicken moist.
