Have made this recipe for years. My family loves it. Easy to make does need additional seasoning for better taste.

This was great. I too used cream of mushroom and I seasoned my chicken.

I added some seasoning to the chicken while it was browning. That made the difference. I also added some pepper jack cheese in with the mozzorella. That made it great. All recipes have room for you to play with them and make them your own.
