creamy chicken mushroom soup w/wild rice
This is a recipe that I prepared one night after craving a great chicken mushroom soup. The cream and tomatoes were an after thought but it really added to the recipe. I love to cook on the fly without any for thought. There is so much flavor in this soup it’ll blow your mind. Enjoy!

Step 1In large saucepan melt 1/4 stick of butter, then add mushrooms. While they are cooking prepare chicken breast by cutting them in half and adding them to a skillet with olive oil and Italian seasoning. Once the liquid from the mushrooms reduces and they are smooth and brown remove them from heat and set aside. Once chicken is browned remove from heat and allow to cool.
