Canned creamy and condensed mushroom soup and chicken soup give lots of flavor to the final sauce and make the cream chicken bake an easy and quick dish. If you have the time, you can instead use homemade creamy soup, adding sliced fresh or canned mushrooms.

Although some recipes will ask you to put the chicken with the creamy sauce into the baking dish and bake all together, this recipe became much more flavorful and with nicer texture when baking the seasoned chicken breast alone for 20 minutes before covering them with creamy sauce and continuing baking for 20 more minutes. When done, the chicken will be moist and tender and the sauce will be creamy and lightly caramelized on top. Serve this creamy chicken bake it with rice, potato purée or pasta only tossed with butter or salad.
