1/2 c light butter
1 Tbsp poppy seeds
10 1/2 oz low fat cream of chicken soup
12 1/2 oz premium white chicken, (i use the coctoc kirkland brand)

Steps:

Tips:

To make sure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
If you don't have poppy seeds, you can use sesame seeds or even chopped nuts as a substitute.
For a crispier coating, dredge the chicken in flour before dipping it in the egg mixture and coating it with poppy seeds.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
To make a low-fat version of this recipe, use non-fat yogurt instead of sour cream and bake the chicken instead of frying it.
