Five minutes of prep. One skillet. Thirty minutes start to finish. This is the weeknight dinner that asks almost nothing of you and still delivers.

Chicken breasts get browned until golden, then broccoli, carrots, and mushrooms get a quick sauté in the same pan.

Cream of broccoli soup mixed with milk becomes the sauce, and everything simmers together until the chicken is fork-tender and the vegetables are cooked through.

A squeeze of lemon at the end brightens the whole thing up. Serve it over rice or with a chunk of bread to soak up that creamy sauce.

Pro Tips

  • Brown the chicken fully on both sides before removing it. That golden crust adds flavour to the entire dish through the fond left in the pan.
  • Slice the carrots thin so they cook at the same rate as the broccoli and mushrooms.
  • Don’t skip the lemon garnish. The acidity cuts through the richness of the cream sauce and wakes everything up.
