"This recipe was given to me about 20 years ago when I was looking for cheap and simple ideas. I am so sorry I lost touch with the lady that gave it to me. She was a fabulous cook. It is good enough for company served over white rice with a salad on the side."

 

• Ready In: 50mins

directions

1. You can add other stuff if you like: Onions, mixed veg.
2. (the frozen blend works best) Almost anything goes.
3. Wash and skin chicken (if desired, it really doesn't matter).
4. Mix all the other ingredients in a bowl and add enough water to make a good medium sauce mixture.
5. Pour over chicken and back at 350F until chicken is cooked through.
6. It usually takes my electric oven about 45-50 mins.
7. (I like to be sure the chicken is really cooked).
8. I have also cooked this in my crockpot starting in the morning so that it can be eaten for dinner.
9. Just add a little more water about l cup total should be enough.

I loved this dish! I put it over rice like you suggested and that really set it off. The chicken was so moist and tender and the flavor was very delicious. Thank you for a great recipe.
