Campbells condensed chicken soup

[MarmMummy]

I recall my mother making us what she called 'chicken mess' as a child. Leftover chicken, this soup, peas and sweetcorn on top of rice.

Does anyone make anything similar?!

What else might I need to add?

oh blimey yes I remember that, the soup turns into a sauce. Might do that meself!

wouldn't think you'd need to add anything else.

We had this too and it was lovely.

Mum fried some onion in butter then put all the ingredients that you mention in a casserole dish (covered) and baked it in a slowish oven for a couple of hours.

I think Campbells have some recipes on their site. I always keep in a couple of tins. V useful.

Brilliant, thanks everyone. Hoping it will bring back some childhood memories!

I fry sliced chicken breast, onion, bacon & mushrooms in a pan, add a can of the chicken soup (or the mushroom soup) with some water and then add peas & sweetcorn. I serve it with filled pasta. It's delicious

Yep - similar thing, soften onions, add sliced mushrooms, leftover chicken, 2 cans of condensed soup (chicken & white wine even better) and 1 canful of milk (no water) - add frozen peas about 2 minutes before serving, serve over rice. "Chicken Supreme". My favourite comfort food - my mum made me a load for the freezer when DS was born.

I think they are called Baxters now BTW - in case you were frantically searching for website/soup on tesco online etc

I do a similar thing but with campbells mushroon soup and put a pastry lid on it.

Isn't it funny how we all have good memories of a very basic dinner made with leftovers to make them do another dinner.

Just made it for children's supper tonight ..... tastes yummy!

Another one with the condensed soup is called mushroom and egg pie. Admittedly I hate this but kids love it.
Couple of boiled eggs in a casserole dish, pour on condensed mushroom soup. Add mash potato and cheese on top and bake.
They would eat that every night.

My mum used to make a dish amusingly named Classy Chicken from this soup, which probably sounds vile, but it's absolutely one of my favourite things and I always request it when I go home.
