Ingredients

• 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1 lb or 450g)
• 1 tsp canola oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp hot chili flakes (optional)
• 1/2 onion
• 1 celery rib
• 5 mushrooms
• 1 can mushroom soup, reduced-sodium (10 fl oz or 284 mL)
• 1 can chicken broth, reduced-sodium (10 fl oz or 284 mL)

Directions

Heat oil in a large stove-top pot at medium.  Cut chicken into bite-size pieces and add to pot as you cut.  Season with spice and stir until meat is no longer pink and cooked through.

Dice onion and slice celery adding to pot as you cut.  Rinse and slice mushrooms.  Add to pot.

Add mushroom soup and stir.  Gradually add chicken broth and stir.  Add milk to pot and stir.

Add tortellini to pot.  Reduce heat to simmer.  Set timer for 15 minutes or until tortellini is soft.  Stir often.

Rinse veggies and arrange on plate.

Combine mayonnaise, sour cream and spice in a small mixing bowl.  Stir and set aside.

Serve tortellini in bowls with veggies and dip on the side.  We like to sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top of ours.
