Chicken Leekie

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I HAD to make this after seeing Carolines picture!!!

    used 2 boneless breasts I had cut into chunks. I browned them well in butter. I got a bit lazy and just mixed the soup and half & half in a bowl, then poured it over the chicken and cooked it to thicken that way. I also added about 1/3 c. Chardonnay to the mix, and some leftover sauteed fresh mushrooms. It was exquisite over rice pilaf! It is a tad salty, but that is good for me...it just meant I did not have to add salt at the table. If you are salt sensitive, it may be a bit much for you.

    Chicken Leekie, A very easy and tasty way to fix chicken for dinner Cream of leek soup adds wonderful flavor, quite different from onion soup mix My niece and nephew gave the dish this name because they thought leeks sounded so funny (Besides, cockaleekie was already taken, right?) I think the recipe came from the Knorr package, but I’m not sure I haven’t made this for a long time, but now that I’ve found the recipe again, out comes the iron skillet!, I HAD to make this after seeing Carolines picture!!! used 2 boneless breasts I had cut into chunks I browned them well in butter I got a bit lazy and just mixed the soup and half & half in a bowl, then poured it over the chicken and cooked it to thicken that way I also added about 1/3 c Chardonnay to the mix, and some leftover sauteed fresh mushrooms It was exquisite over rice pilaf!
