Cream Cheese Chicken

This meal is really simple and quite tasty. It's one of those throw it in a pot and let it go type deals. Which, I think, is great for those days when you just DON'T feel like cooking, but you NEED to do it anyway. haha. Originally, this recipe was for a crock pot but I found it only takes about 20-30 minutes from start to finish on the stove, so I just do it that way. So let's get to it. :)

Ingredients:
-Chicken breasts (I usually use around 2, possibly 3 if they aren't huge)
-An Italian seasoning packet
-4 tablespoons melted butter
Onion and garlic (use real if you want to, powder if you don't. A small onion and a clove of garlic, or a teaspoon of onion powder and a teaspoon of garlic. adjust to taste)
-can of cream of chicken soup
-1/2 cup chicken broth
-8 oz block of cream cheese
-a starch to serve it with (I use egg noodles, but rice or something is fine too)

Directions:
In a large pot, over medium/medium high heat, melt two of the tablespoons of butter, then add the chicken, and sprinkle with the seasoning packet. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes, flipping chicken half way through. When chicken is close to being cooked through, you can take it out, cut it into small chunks, and put it back in to keep cooking. You can do that to begin with if you want to cut the raw chicken. I find cooking it mostly first helps keep it from drying out. When chicken is cooked through, add the soup, broth, and onion and garlic (if you use the real stuff, saute it in butter till tender first) to the pot. Stir to combine. Add the cream cheese in small-ish chunks. Stir it in and let it melt, stirring occasionally. When everything is combined and melted and hot, spoon it over your cooked noodles or rice and serve. Yum!
