❤️ Faye’s Tips for Making This Easy Chicken Dinner

Chicken thighs work, too! If you prefer dark meat, boneless chicken thighs are a wonderful substitute.

Don’t throw away that gravy! The butter, ranch seasoning, and cream of mushroom soup create a delicious sauce that’s perfect over rice or mashed potatoes.

Want extra gravy? You can add a little chicken broth to thin the sauce if needed.

Make it your own! Try adding sliced mushrooms or a little black pepper for extra flavor.

Don’t overcook your chicken! Check for doneness with a meat thermometer so the chicken stays tender and juicy.
