Ingredients
1 can (10¾ oz.) condensed low-fat cream of mushroom soup
4 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb.)
2 cups frozen green beans
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
½ cup water
¼ tsp. dried thyme leaves
Directions
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place chicken breasts in the skillet and cover. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, indicating the chicken is fully cooked through.
Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and set aside.
Add the frozen green beans, cream of mushroom soup, water, and dried thyme to the skillet. Cover and cook for 6 minutes, stirring frequently to combine and heat the sauce.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the green bean mixture and cover. Cook for 1 minute to warm the chicken through.
Top the chicken and vegetables with the shredded cheddar cheese. Let sit for a minute until the cheese melts before serving.
