Method
 

Stepwise Method:
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture.
  3. Melt the butter in a small bowl and pour it into the bottom of your baking dish.
  4. Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the baking dish in a single layer.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk, cream of chicken soup, and water until smooth.
  6. Pour the creamy sauce over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully covered.
  7. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
  8. Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving with your favorite sides.
