Ingredients

4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
2.5 oz Dried Beef
10.5 oz Cream of Chicken Soup
4 oz Cream Cheese, cubed and softened
8 oz Sour Cream
1/2 tsp black pepper
Cooked Rice for serving
Steamed Broccoli as a side dish

Instructions

Put chicken in a baking dish.
Separate dried beef and put on top of chicken so the breasts are covered (approximately 3 pieces for breast + more because your family will love it).
Spoon soup over the chicken and dried beef.
Sprinkle with black pepper.
Bake, covered, in a 325 degree oven for 60 minutes.
Uncover, and bake another 20 minutes until chicken is tender.
Remove chicken from pan and cover with foil to keep warm.
Skim any fat from liquid in a saucepan (if using boneless, skinless breasts, there shouldn't be too much, if any, fat).
Add sour cream and cream cheese to the saucepan.
Heat until melted through.
Serve over cooked rice with a side of steamed broccoli.
Add salt to taste.

Notes

Dried beef can be hard to find at the grocery store. I have had the best luck at Walmart. The jars come in a 2.25 ounce or 2.5 ounce size. Grab whatever size you can find.

Cubing the cream cheese helps it to melt faster when making the sauce.

You can use a hand mixer to get a smoother sauce, but I'm far too lazy for that.
