Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

bread crumbs
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons olive oil, or more to taste
2 cups cooked white rice
2 cups ranch dressing
1 (10.75 ounce) can cream of celery soup
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup slivered almonds
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup crushed potato chips, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Spread bread crumbs into a wide, shallow bowl. Press chicken breast halves into bread crumbs to coat. Gently pat chicken to let any loose crumbs fall away. Place coated breasts onto a plate while breading the rest; do not stack.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in hot oil to brown completely, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
  • Spread rice into the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish. Arrange browned chicken breasts atop the rice.
  • Mix ranch dressing, celery soup, mozzarella cheese, and almonds together in a bowl; pour over the chicken and rice, assuring the chicken is covered completely. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the ranch dressing mixture and top with crushed potato chips.
  • Bake in preheated oven until golden brown on top and the chicken is no longer pink in the center, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh chicken, vegetables, and herbs will make a big difference in the taste of your soup.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too much chicken or vegetables to the pot, the soup will be too thick and won't cook evenly.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste until the soup is flavorful but not too salty.
  • Serve the soup with a garnish. A sprinkle of chopped parsley, cilantro, or green onions will add a pop of color and flavor to your soup.

Conclusion:

Creamy chicken almond soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying soup that the whole family will enjoy.
