I need an easy chicken recipe?

I've got some boneless skinless chicken breast that I need to use up, but I'm out of ideas for what to do with it. I'm a beginner cook, so the easier the better for me. I don't mind something that takes time, just not complicated. Everything I seem to find has either mushrooms or onions and I can't stand either. So if anyone has any good recipes I would greatly appreciate it.I need an easy chicken recipe?

well our favorite chicken recipe uses cream of mushroom soup but you can't taste the mushrooms i promise! you could also replace it with cream of chicken soup





preheat oven to 375 peel %26amp; slice 6 potatoes (i've also used the canned potatoes %26amp; they come out less crunchy that way %26amp; it's less work!) lay them in the bottom of a baking dish then open up a can or two of green beans spread them out on top of the potatoes then put the chicken on top of that then in a bowl mix cream of mushroom soup or cream of chicken soup with some ranch to your likeing then put that over the chicken %26amp; cover it with foil then bake it for an hour or until the chicken is done. we typically don't have any left overs at all when i make this
