Peach Dump Chicken - OAMC

"The theory is you dump this in a bag and freeze to pull out later. There are many variations which I will post separately but it's amazingly easy to make these up and have a different "dump" chicken every week!"

  1. This was so quick and easy! I made exactly as written but did not peel the peach and marinated it in the fridge for almost 24 hours. It baked up beautifully in just over 30 minutes. It was juicy and tender with a very subtle flavor that we enjoyed over a salad. Next time I will probably add more peach and a bit more seasoning, but there will definitely be a next time. Thank you for posting!
     
  2. Made this with 1/3 jar apricot jam like another poster mentioned, then I froze it. Turned out great. Serve with a little rice and veg and dinner is ready in minutes. Will make it with the jam again for freezing, but also want to try it with frozen peaches also.
     
  3. This was very yummy. I used an entre bag of frozen peaches and family loved it.
     
  4. Yummy!! I used about 1/3 of a jar of apricot jam instead of the peaches. It turned out beautifully. This is a great sweet chicken dish. DH even liked it! He "doesn't like apricots...". LOL. I didn't tell him they were in there and he liked it. :) I'll be making this again! Thanks for sharing. 4/23/07 ETA: I tried this again (with apricot jam again) on the BBQ... Wowzers!!! :)
     
  5. I found a similar (if not identical) recipe elsewhere. It was pretty tasty, although the peach slices got a tad too cooked IMHO. I used frozen peach slices. I would make this again, although I may tweak the seasonings some.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes: ? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again. ? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time. ? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK ? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all ? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
