Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground sage, and dried thyme.
  2. Pat the chicken breasts dry and coat them lightly with the flour-herb mixture, shaking off any excess.
  3. Heat the margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat until melted and foaming.
  4. Add the coated chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and nearly cooked through.
  5. Push the chicken to one side of the skillet.
  6. In the empty space, add the cream of chicken soup and water, stirring constantly to loosen and incorporate the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  7. Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet.
  8. Simmer gently for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is fork-tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  9. Serve the chicken and gravy over hot cooked rice.
