Did the name get your attention? My daughter Taylor gave it this name because she doesn't like mushrooms. She calls them "evil things." The cheddar sauce is optional. Omit it to keep the recipe healthier.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This chicken and broccoli skillet is a sure-fire mealtime winner. Cooking broccoli with chopped onions, green peppers, and seasonings takes broccoli from basic to delicious. Combining Italian tomatoes and mushrooms with cheddar cheese soup creates a sauce that elevates the pan-fried chicken breasts. For a simple chicken meal, this dish is jam-packed with flavor.
