I found this recipe online. My MIL makes this without the cheese and it tastes good. If you don't have butter use pam or whatever you already have.
If you can find chicken breasts on sale you should be able to make this for under $10 without the cheese. If you can I would use 2 cans of the cream of mushroom.

-Butter your preferred size casserole dish. Wash and half potatoes and lay the m cut side down, covering the bottom of the casserole. You may prefer to peel the potatoes.
Cover the potatoes with washed and skinned chicken pieces. Spread chicken and potatoes with canned cream of mushroom soup.

Cover with foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour, then remove foil and sprinkle 1 cup grated cheddar cheese over all. Bake, uncovered for approximately 30 minutes more.
