A simple and flavorful classic comfort food made with chicken thighs and a creamy mushroom sauce, perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup (10.5 oz)
  • 1 packet onion soup mix (1 oz)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  4. Drizzle olive oil in a 9Ă—13-inch baking dish.
  5. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper on both sides.
  6. Place the chicken skin-side up in the baking dish.
  7. Pour the soup mixture evenly over the chicken.
