Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly spray 9x13 glass dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
Place chicken breasts into baking dish and sprinkle with salt & pepper. Top with slices of cheese.
For the homemade condensed cream of chicken soup, melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Sprinkle in flour and whisk. Cook 1 minute. Stir in water and whisk to remove any lumps.
Simmer until thick, then stir in milk and chicken bouillon paste plus the seasonings. Sauce should thicken slightly at this point. Taste, adjust seasonings and pour over chicken. Top with crushed ritz crackers and bake for 30-45 minutes or until chicken registers at 160 degrees. Serve over rice.

Notes

*if you don't have the paste, feel free to use chicken broth, bouillon granules or the bouillon cubes. Just ensure you use enough recommended for 2 cups of liquid.
