CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN - CROCK POT

Steps:

• Brush chicken with butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place in a crock pot and sprinkle dry mix over all.
• Cover and cook on low for 6 - 7 hours.
• About 45 minutes before done, mix soup, cream cheese, and onion in a small saucepan. Cook until smooth.
• Pour over the chicken. Cover and cook another 45 minutes.
• NOTE: I will have the sauce already cooked and frozen and ready to pour over the chicken after it's been cooked in the crock pot, and will include that and the uncooked chicken with the meal.

CROCK POT CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place chicken pieces in crock pot and sprinkle Italian seasoning over chicken. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons melted butter.
• Cook on low for 4-6 hours.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a sauce pan and saute onion and garlic. Add Cream of Chicken Soup, cream cheese, and chicken broth. Stir until smooth.
• Add this mixture to crock pot and cook on low for an additional hour.

THE BETTER BUTTER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Melt butter in a deep, 10-inch skillet over medium heat; add onions and garlic; cook slowly, stirring often, until onions are tender - about five minutes.
• Add gingerroot, chili powder, turmeric and cinnamon; cook one more minute.
• Add undrained tomatoes, tomato paste, brown sugar, salt and pepper; reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add cut-up chicken, cream and sour cream; simmer, uncovered, for five more minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in cilantro; serve over hot basmati rice, if desired.

CHICKEN IN POOR MAN'S RICH CREAM CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with seasoning salt and garlic powder, and set aside.
• In a microwaveable bowl, mix cream cheese, milk, garlic powder and pepper.
• Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, checking and stirring until cream cheese is melted.
• Heat olive oil in a saute pan.
• Add chicken to pan and saute at medium heat adding small amounts of water to pan, as needed, so that chicken doesn't get too dry or stick to pan. The chicken will release juices that blend with the water.
• When chicken is cooked through, but there is still some of this "juicy water" in the pan, add the sauce to the pan and cook until heated through.
• Remove chicken with a slotted spoon and arrange on a bed of white rice.
• Spoon or pour sauce over the chicken and then sprinkle with parsley or chives.
• NOTE: I usually serve this dish with a side of steamed broccoli drizzled in heated olive oil (I season the heated olive oil with lime juice and garlic powder). YUMMY!
