This dish is a product of my approach when dealing with chicken. When I buy chicken portions I aim to have the portions fit three different meals. So I typically roast, stew and find something flavourful to do with the breast.

So this recipe was made with the chicken breast. Chicken breast fits in many places including scrumptious chicken casserole dishes.

As the ingredients here probably give away, the idea behind this recipe was to bring onboard a mixture of agreeing flavours. The black pepper and curry powder combined with the mushroom flavour supplied by the cream of mushroom powder delivered a lovely outcome.
