Bacon Wrapped Chicken With Mushrooms

"This is one of the few dishes I make that uses canned soup. When I left school I worked as an au-pair in Norway for a year and the family I lived with used to cook this. It's easy, but really yummy."

directions

  • Wrap the chicken breast fillets with 1-2 bacon rashers each.
  • Heat a little oile in a non stick frying pan, and quickly fry the chicken for a couple of minutes each side, just so the bacon starts to brown a little.
  • Place in an oven proof dish, that just holds them lying next to eachother (not too big).
  • In a bowl mix the soup with the mushrooms and pour over the chicken, so it's nearly covered.
  • Cover with a lid or tin foil and bake in a preheated oven at 190°C/375°F/Gas 5 for 30-40 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink.
  • Remove lid and sprinkle the cheese over the chicken breasts, replace lid and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Serve with rice.

  1. This was very well received. I used chicken soup and added thyme, poultry seasoning and 2 heaping tablespoons of sour cream. The bacon gave a nice smoky flavour to the sauce. I will make this again. Thank you.
     
  2. We served over egg noodles. Bacon flavor overwhelmed the chicken might be better without bacon. Added salt and pepper.
     
  3. I made this for dinner tonight and it was really good.I loved the sauce with the fresh muchrooms.Thanks for sharing!!!
     
  4. This also reminded me of a "forgotten recipe" except mine had sour cream and dried beef. I was glad to forgo the calories of the sour cream. I did saute my mushrooms after the chicken. This was wonderful (!) and went great with Wild Rice Casserole Recipe #97908. Mine looked just like your photo! Roxygirl
     
  5. My mom used to make this when I was a kid. I tried to make it myself one day (before finding your recipe) and it didn't turn out so well. I'm glad to have found it again!
