Easy Gourmet Chicken for a Crowd image

I was going through all of my recipes, trying to decide which one to use to serve a crowd of people the next day. I finally could not decide between 3 recipes, so I combined the best features from each and came up with this. It was so easy to make and everyone said it was delicious. I am rewriting it here while it is fresh in my mind. Plus I will have it for future reference. Hope you enjoy!

1 (26 ounce) can cream of chicken soup, family size
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of celery soup
1 1/2-2 cups white wine (not sweet)

1/2 teaspoon ground thyme
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced

  • Grease either two 13x 9 pans or one large half sheet cake pan.
  • Arrange chicken tenders in pan(s).
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Heat oil in large skillet.
  • Saute onions and peppers till soft.
  • Add garlic to skillet about halfway through to let flavors blend.
  • Arrange over chicken.
  • Combine soups, wine, lemon juice and spices.
