Crockpot Russian Chicken

SUNDAY'S FOOD TIP

Here's a recipe for easy Crockpot Russian Chicken. This isn't a new recipe, but recently a friend made this dish with chicken wings and served it as part of a casual (and delicious) lunch at our monthly book club meeting. I think I prefer this made with chicken wings or thighs instead of chicken breasts - which is the way I used to make it.

Put this dish in your crockpot on Sunday morning, and by Sunday evening you'll have dinner ready with just the addition of some brown rice and a tossed salad. M-m-m...yum!


CROCKPOT RUSSIAN CHICKEN

1 (16 oz.) bottle Russian dressing

1 env. onion soup mix

1 (10 oz.) jar apricot preserves

4 to 6 large pieces of chicken (I prefer to use a large package of chicken wings or thighs)

Salt and pepper to taste

Combine the Russian dressing, onion soup mix, and apricot preserves in a bowl and pour mixture into the crockpot. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Place chicken, skin side down, in the crockpot. Cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours or HIGH for 3 to 4 hours).

Serves 4-6.
