  1. This is a classic 1970s recipe from Kraft -Catalina. They use 1/2 c apricot preserves and 1/2 c dressing and 3T soup mix at 350 for 30-45 minutes. 1-1/2 lb chicken. It's DELISH. I just made this crockpot version with 2 lbs chicken. I use bone in thighs.
     
  2. simple and yummy
     
  3. I took a chance on this recipe last night with company for dinner... it was AWESOME!!!! Everyone LOVED it, even my daughters who are extremely picky (I was shocked!).
     
  4. Nasty. The sauce is too sweet. The chicken is too dry. The family was very disappointed. Don't waste your time.
     
  5. I enjoyed this dish but, it was a bit too sweet for our taste. I had expected this based on reviews of similar recipes I've found and even added 2 T. of apple cider vinegar. This did help but, I think next time I might also add a splash of lemon juice and maybe a few veggies to help cut the sweetness a bit. Otherwise, it was flavorful and very tender. I will make this again but will try some changes to adjust it to our specific taste.
