My mom gave me my own copy of Bon Apetit's "Too Busy To Cook" cookbook when I was a senior in college. One of the first recipes that I made (and continue to make) is its easy do-ahead "Great Chicken." This is a recipe that would make Sandra Lee smile. I think it will make your family smile too!
Great Chicken
1 (8 oz) bottle Russian salad dressing
1 cup orange marmalade
1 envelope onion soup mix
3 whole, bone in chicken breasts, halved and skinned (or 6 boneless/skinless)
Combine first 3 ingredients in large bowl and mix well. Add chicken, turning to coat. Cover and marinate in refrigerator overnight.
Preheat oven to 350. Arrange chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish and bake 15 minutes. Baste generously, turn chicken over and baste again. Continue cooking, basting occasionally until chicken tests done, about 45 minutes. (Note: boneless skinless chicken breasts will bake for about 20-30 minutes.)
