Russian Dressing Sweet & Sour Chicken

"I got this recipe off of Regis and Kathy Lee back in 1996. I have not yet tried it because no one in my family likes this kind of stuff, but it sounds so good to me. Please somebody try it and let me know how it is."

  1. This was a hit in my house. I used chicken wings, instead, and added some hot sauce for zing. It was a finger-licking success! Just make sure you line the pan with foil and use plenty of non-stick spray.
     
  2. I made this for my husband last week and he thought it was really tasty. He is a picky eater and hates when I try new recipes but he said this was a keeper. It's extremely easy to prepare and I will be making this again. It's definetly a keeper for me. Thanks for the recipe! Anita
     
  3. Oh, Paula you have GOT to try this!!! Very similar to the "Apricot Chicken" recipe posted here on 'Zaar. It is FANTASTIC!!! I like it served over cooked rice, but it is also wonderful over mashed potatoes. Great recipe! ~Manda
     
  4. I or I should say our family loved this. I served it on a bed of plain white rice with steamed brocoli and some black eyed peas as sides. Very good flavor. If you like sweet and sour you will like this. Not as sweet. This will be a once a week meal it was so good. Couldn't be any easier and very inexpensive to make. Hard to believe such a simple recipe deserves 5 stars.
     
  5. Delicious served it with cous cous with raisins and toasted slivered almonds and steamed broccoli. I decided to try this recipe because it reminded me of one my mother-in-law made. she used catalina(not sure of sp.) dressing, but is similar to russian and canned grapefruit. I always liked the chicken part but apricots are far better.
