Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a medium saucepan, combine the diced chicken, evaporated milk, cream of mushroom soup, water, drained spinach, and sliced mushrooms. (Prep time: ~5 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

Season with a dash of hot pepper sauce, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to your liking. (Prep time: ~1 minute)

03

Step
1 mins

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, until the mixture is heated through and gently simmering. (Cook time: ~10-15 minutes)

04

Step
15 mins

Serve hot over cooked egg noodles, rice, or toast points for a complete and satisfying meal. (Prep time: ~2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, sauté finely diced onion and minced garlic in butter before adding the remaining ingredients.
Feel free to substitute broccoli florets or peas for the spinach, depending on your preference and what you have on hand.
If you don't have evaporated milk, you can use regular milk, but the sauce will be slightly thinner.
Adjust the amount of hot pepper sauce to control the level of spice.
Fresh mushrooms can be used in place of canned. Sauté them in a pan with butter until softened before adding them to the sauce.
