From: Jane and Roger Finch

This is a very easy recipe that has been in the Finch house for a long time. Jenny made this for dinner when she was 9 years old. She called Jane at work every 15 minutes to make sure she wasn't messing it up. It turned out pretty good.

3 large chicken breasts, cut in half

2 tablespoons butter

1 can cream of mushroom soup

3/4 cup cooking sauterne or any dry white wine or vermouth

1- 5 ounce can water chestnuts, sliced

2 tablespoons chopped green pepper or more

1/4 teaspoon crushed thyme

Serve with rice.


Method:

Brown chicken breast halves in butter. Remove breasts to a plate.

Brown the mushrooms.

Add soup, stirring constantly.

Add wine and stir until smooth.

Add rest of ingredients including chicken breasts. Bring to a boil.

Bake, covered in a 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes. Can be baked, covered on a stovetop.

Serve with rice.
