Should I add any margarine or oil to my concoction of instant brown rice/cream of chicken soup/chicken breast?

I'm going to take 4 cups of instant brown rice and, instead of using water, cook it in 1 can of cream of chicken soup plus 1 soup can of milk. I'm also going to add some chicken breast that I cook separately.





Do you think the flavor would be improved if I add some margarine or oil to this concoction? If so, what do you recommend?





Any other advice about this ';recipe'; is appreciated too!Should I add any margarine or oil to my concoction of instant brown rice/cream of chicken soup/chicken breast?
I wouldn't think it could hurt to add some margarine. I'd also add two chopped green onions and some cumin for a Southwest flavor, maybe a teaspoon.

Can u cook cream of chicken soup with chicken breast ? is it good?

You Can pour the soup over the chicken and bake it about 25 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Or, dice the chicken and sautee it, then pour the soup over it. you are only limited by your imagination! Which ever way you cook it, make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees.Can u cook cream of chicken soup with chicken breast ? is it good?

You can probably do it the same way as if you were using cream of mushroom soup.
BAKED CHICKEN IN CREAM OF CHICKEN SOUP





6 chicken breasts


1 can Campbell's cream of chicken soup


Salt and pepper





Wash chicken parts; dry and season to taste. Put in greased, shallow pan and cover with cream of chicken soup. Bake, uncovered, in 375 degree oven for 2 hours. Serves 6.
You can, but I don't think any of those campbell's soup recipes have enough flavor.
I have personally put chicken breast in a baking dish and covered it cream of chicken soup it tastes pretty good but my family liked the cream of mushroom better and be sure to cover it with foil so it doesn't form a crust on the soup I baked mine at 425 for about 40 mins and it turned out good I also have made some other variations by adding my favorite veggies to the mix and giving bit of a casserole type look
Yeah if you let the Chicken breasts simmer in the cream of chicken. it is really good.
yes and its very good/over rice
I usually par boil my chicken first...it cuts down the cooking time in the oven...how ever way most cream soups taste excellent when poured over meats of any kind.

How do you make cream of chicken soup like Campbell's ?

This is a good basic cream of chicken soup recipe. You can use cornstarch instead of flour to make the roux (thick base) if you are allergic to flour. You can also omit the salt, if you are on a restrictive diet. The best thing about making recipes yourself, is that you control what goes into your soup, minus the unhealthy preservatives!





';Campbell's'; Cream of Chicken Soup (minus preservatives!)

2. Add chicken to white sauce mixture. Add sugar, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well and simmer for 20 minutes over low heat.

Cream of celery or cream of chicken?

im making chicken casarole and i accidently bought cream of celery instead of cream of chicken. Should i run to the store and get cream of chicken or would it make any difference in the taste.Cream of celery or cream of chicken?
It will have less chicken flavor... celery isn't bad though.Cream of celery or cream of chicken?
I interchange them all the time and both taste equally good.
Some chicken casserole recipes actually call for a blend of cream of celery and cream of chicken. It's a great combination in lots of chicken dishes, as are cream of broccoli and cream of mushroom soups.





So boldly go where many chicken casseroles have gone before, and use that cream of celery soup!
use it.


it will be fine.


you can add a bit of chicken broth from boullion cubes if you have them.


it will be ok without.


not to worry.
I wouldn't run out and get the chicken. Cream of celery will work just fine. The taste will be slightly detectable--especially if you are looking for a difference, but it should be good!
Either one would be fine. It's mostly for texture and consistency.
Bah, you'll be good.
Experimentation can be fun.
u can use either one, but since you have cream of celery, i would suggest adding a bit extra chicken to give it the kick of flavor, the recipe will turn out great... next time try cream of broccoli- really!
Ashley,,,,,omg girl ,what are you thinking,,,,,,i just have 3 word's for you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,FLAVOR,,,,,,,,,,FLAVOR鈥?is what you chase in cookery, and did you know the two,chicken %26amp; celery, go hand in hand as water does with coffee,,,,,, now are you going too add some ,';herb's';, try, thyme, a little oregano,sage, and finely chopped parsley at the end,salt %26amp; pepper too taste.


Save your leg's and money,and time,don,t go running back too the market every time a recipe say's you need this or that,,,use what you have,,';your head, and what you know';, ,,,,you can cook every body can cook,just have a little trust in your self and what your skill's are.


Now back too your creation, what are you going too serve it with,,,,,rice,pasta, maybe a little salad,and pls don't forget the wine,,,and get hubby involed,too place the candle's and set the table for dinner.





BON APPETITE, Alan
cream of chicken
well lets put it this way, if its as cold where you are as it is where I am the cream of celery will do just fine.
no difference but I would add a little chicken boullion to incorporate more chicken taste and your family will think it is gourmet! I try stuff like this all the time and my family thinks I cook gourmet! All I do is experiment a little with everything. Make it yours,dont be afraid
I doubt if you can tell the difference. Save yourself a trip to the store, I interchange them all the time.
It won't hurt to use cream of celery as long as you like celery
Ive done that! Don't worry there's no difference in taste. Go for it!
It will taste wonderful, dont change it.
Congratulations!


You've created a new dish, and it will taste just fine.


If you would like a little more chicken taste, add about a teaspoon of chicken bouillon granules to the mixture.
If you don't like celery it might.Also, you are adding chicken aren't you?

Wats a good substitue for condensed cream of chicken soup?

im using this in a pasta recipe and dont have it.can i use sour cream instead.Wats a good substitue for condensed cream of chicken soup?
Use the sour cream and if you have a can of chicken with rice, chicken noodle or chicken broth.Wats a good substitue for condensed cream of chicken soup?
Yes, feel free to use sour cream. If you have other ';cream of'; soups, try those as well - you may like them even better than the chicken!
You can use cream of mushroom, cream of celery, cream of broccoli or any other cream of soup. I think that if you substitute sour cream for the soup you won't have much flavor.
cream of mushroom???
yes, unless you have cream of potatoe soup, or mushroom soup, or cream celery soup
The sour cream will work, but add a little flour to it and add it to the recipe just before serving or it may become watery. If you have cream of mushroom soup or cream of celery, or any of the other cream-type soups, those will work also, you can mix them with the sour cream too.





Alternatively you can make a white sauce and use that instead. It can be as thick or thin as you want. Here's a recipe from cooks.com:





BASIC WHITE SAUCE


1 c. milk


3 tbsp. all-purpose flour


1/4 tsp. salt


1/8 tsp. pepper


3 tbsp. butter


Combine all ingredients except butter in 4 cup glass measure. Beat with rotary beater until smooth. Add butter. Microwave for 3 minutes on high. Beat well and continue cooking for 1-1 1/2 minutes on high until thickened.


For thin white sauce, use 2 tablespoons flour and 2 tablespoons butter in basic recipe.


For thick white sauce, use 1/4 cup flour and 1/4 cup butter in basic recipe.
Sour Cream is a really good choice.
there are 2 options 1st use sore cream


2nd one use butter and flour milt the butter then cook the flour in it for 40 - 60 sec until the color of it become yellow .

Chicken Alfredo
Cook the chicken then Cut up the carrot and put it aroungd a plate.Drink the wine. Then pour out the cream then mix it with onion..... hope it helps
Go to http://allrecipes.com/ then go to more searches. Move the mouse down to Ingredient search. List chicken, cream, onion, and carrots under the ingredients I want. List beef, pork, turkey, and liver under the ingredients I don't want. When I did it I found 79 recipes. I think you will find something you will like. I have had great results with the recipes I have made from the website.


Or put chicken, carrots, wine, %26amp; onions on the ingredints I want. Put beef, pork, turkey, and fish on the ingredints I don't want. I found 44 recipes. Now I will warn you it did bring in recipes with goose, lobster, lamb as main meat as well but ignore them.


They do not allow more than 4 items to not include and that allows recipes to come up you don't want. Just read through them to find one you like.


Good luck

  • Can I make green bean casserole with cream of chicken instead of cream of mushroom?

    I'm going by direction (because I'm not a good cook).Would it not taste as good or what??Can I make green bean casserole with cream of chicken instead of cream of mushroom?
    Yes, you certainly can. The flavor will be different, but you may even find that you like it better with cream of chicken.Can I make green bean casserole with cream of chicken instead of cream of mushroom?
    Do you think cream of onion would be better than cream of chicken? My husband is allergic to mushrooms. Thanks! Report Abuse

    It'll taste just as good! A little saltier but still good. Some people are allergic to mushrooms so cream of chicken is way better to me than cream of mushroom.





    Edit-


    Ok so I just read all theother answers and they are correct BUT I like the first one best...short and to the point...Hope they get 10 points!
    Go for it. Sometimes my best comes from just experimenting with different things. Sometimes my worst also, but I will continue to experiment.





    My mom, bless her soul, never did anything exactly the same way twice. Always experimenting in her own way.
    yeah actually you can. my mom cannot stand cream of mushroom and always makes it with cream of chicken, i think it tastes just as good! i love green bean casserole! be generous with the french fried onions :-)
    Yes, you can use cream of mushroom. Cream of celery soup works well also.
    It will probably taste good, but it won't taste the same. Cream of mushroom and cream of chicken have very different tastes.
    Sure you can put a little garlic powder in it it tastes great.
    what i would suggest is when u make the casserole with the chicken soup put in a little brown sugar it might sound horrible but it will blend with the salt and will even out
    Cream of chicken will impart more flavor than the cream of mushroom will. Just enjoy.
    Yes, in fact we sometimes put both cream of chicken and cream of mushroom soups in there.
    It will taste just a little different, but it will be good anyway.
    it tastes better than the mushroom imo
    You ordainer that by yourself, what you think taste good. But it seems like it works. Just try, then you will find out.
    yep, you can! It will taste just as good.
    mm that sounds good.. glad you posted this.. im sure you can thanks for the idea
    That would be fine, except it will have a chicken taste instead of mushroom.
    Sure can. You can use cream of celery as well.
    It'll taste just as yummy! A little saltier but still good.
    Yes, and it tastes amazing!
    Make green bean casserole how you want it (:
    I might like it better because I'm not a big fan of the traditional recipe. When is dinner? ;)
    sounds yummy, to me...
    That's what I normally use - my kids don't like mushrooms.
