And if you follow the directions for preparation carefully, you can usually count on a successful “dish”. One quick evening meal can be built around speedy Souper Crisp Chicken. To SPENCE prepare this main dish, just dip chicken pieces in slightly dilu ted cream of mushroom soup, then in com flake crumbs.
