While shopping for ingredients for King Ranch Casserole, I found almost everything I needed in one can! I modified a recipe on the back of a new type of Campbell's soup-- Creamy Chicken Verde, one of their Southwest Style Cooking line. (Verde is spanish for green, referring to the poblano pepper in the soup) Try it, you'll like it!

4 -5 boneless skinless chicken breasts
salt and pepper
2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
