Blue-Ribbon Cranberry Chicken
Bake: 1 hr 30 mins at 300°F
Ingredients
- 1 16 ounce can whole cranberry sauce
- 1 8 ounce bottle reduced-calorie Russian salad dressing with honey (about 1 cup) or regular Russian salad dressing
- 1 envelope (1/2 of a 2-ounce package) onion soup mix
- 1 2 1/2 - 3 pound broiler-fryer chicken, cut up
- Hot cooked rice (optional)
- Fresh rosemary (optional)
Directions
1. In a bowl, combine cranberry sauce, salad dressing, and soup mix. Remove and discard chicken skin, if you like. Arrange pieces in one layer in a 3-quart rectangular (13x9x2-inch) baking dish. Pour cranberry mixture over chicken pieces. Cover and chill the chicken mixture in the refrigerator for 6 hours or overnight.
2. Bake the chicken mixture, uncovered, in a 300 degree F oven about 1-1/2 hours or until the chicken is tender and no longer pink, stirring glaze and spooning over chicken once or twice. Serve the chicken and glaze on a platter with hot cooked rice, if you like. Garnish the chicken with fresh rosemary, if you like. Makes 4 servings.
I'll give any recipe at least four stars if it will save me time in the kitchen! Since retiring, my "cooking" has been replaced by "assembling", and this recipe really sounds good!
