Chef's Notes

Evaporated milk can be replaced with regular milk, light cream, or half and half.
Yield: This recipe makes the equivalent of two cans of condensed cream of chicken soup.
Storage: Refrigerate for up to 4 days.
Use: This condensed soup will thicken when refrigerated. It can be added to soups or casseroles in place of condensed soup. 
Slow cooker use: If using regular milk, this recipe will curdle in the slow cooker. If you plan to use this in a slow cooker, use evaporated milk. This recipe will be slightly thicker than store bought canned soup if cooked in the slow cooker so you may need to add a little bit of broth or water to your finished dish.
 
Do not freeze.

I so dislike using canned condensed soups so this recipe was very welcomed. Turns out it tastes better, too. My only change, since I never have poultry seasoning, was to add 1/4 tsp each of basil, oregano and celery seed, which I crushed with my mortar and pestle. Thanks, Holly, for another really great recipe!

This recipe tastes much better than its canned counterpart. I see the note that says this does not work in the slow cooker. I trust your judgement, but just curious, why doesn’t this work in the crock pot? Do you have any alternatives for using canned cream of chicken in the slow cooker?

Michelle ★ 5.0/5

This recipe is a blessing! There are many attractive recipes out there that I choose not to make because they call for condensed cream of chicken or mushroom soup. I just can’t bring myself to use store bought versions with all the sodium, preservatives and ingredients I can’t even pronounce. This recipe is so fast and easy and tastes 100% better than anything from a can. I pretty much always have all the ingredients on hand and it whips up so quickly. Also, I can manage the amount of salt to use, which I always scale back to my liking. It’s a game changer, thank you!

Sharron ★ 5.0/5

Love your recipes and this is no exception. I am curious though, as I watch my sodium intake and you say not to use a low-sodium broth, I'm just wondering how much of a difference it can make in the finished results. Thank you so much and keep your recipes coming, I have tried many of them and have yet to be disappointed. Blessings.
