Grandpa's Chicken

GRANDPA'S CHICKEN

This was my dad's favorite so we had to give it his name....it was one of the first meals I ever learned to make as a kid :)

  • 4-6 skinless, boneless chicken breast (they don't have to be boneless if you'd rather not - plus some in our family prefer thighs and legs so.....)
  • 1 1/2 (1 ounce) packages dry onion soup mix (lipton is the best)
  • 1 (10 fluid ounce) bottle Russian-style salad dressing (sometimes it's hard to find - I have substituted Catalina before but it's not as good).
  • 2 cups apricot preserves

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Place the chicken pieces in a casserole dish. Mix the soup mix, dressing and jam together - pour over the chicken.
  3. Cover dish and bake (thawed) for 1 hour in preheated oven. Frozen would be more. 1 1/2 hours????
  4. I'm sure you could crock-pot it too if you'd prefer.
Label: Bake thawed and covered at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Unthawed 1 1/2 hours. May also crock-pot if you wish (4-6 hours).

Our favorite side is funeral potatoes. But as much as I love you all I'm not making that for everyone in the group ;) Rice is good too.
