HEAVENLY CHICKEN
This chicken goes by a lot of names, but we chose Heavenly Chicken because it's just so perfect! Super moist and tender thanks to the sour cream, and loaded with rich, buttery flavor thanks to the butter drizzle and crispy Ritz crackers.

MEXICAN CHICKEN- OAMC
This is really a versatile recipe, and economical, too. It can be used so many ways... as a filling for burritos, a topping for nachos, or as a side dish. I've also served it in bowls with nachos for scooping. I like to add some cheese no matter how I serve it. I had never cooked with barley before I started making this, but found it easy and tasty- kind of like rice. As prepared here it makes a lot, but you could easily half the recipe.

Steps:
- In a large Dutch oven, cook the onion and garlic in oil until tender.
- Add in all ingredients (including spices) except for chicken. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the cooked chicken; continue simmering another 10 minutes or until the chicken is heated through and the barley is tender.
- To freeze: cool, spoon into quart-sized freezer bags, label, and freeze flat.
- To serve: Thaw chicken mixture. Heat in a skillet until hot. Serve over corn tortilla chips or scoop into flour tortillas, fajita-style.
- Note: If you choose to use regular barley rather than quick cooking barley, you'll want to cook it ahead of time, which takes about an hour. Follow the directions on the box.

HEAVENLY CHICKEN
I have a horror of dry chicken breasts, even though I know white meat is healthier for one. So I was happy to find a flavorful, moist casserole that is also easy to make ahead and freeze. I use skim milk and light ham to help reduce calories, but you can use whatever is on hand. From "Once-a-Month Cooking" by Mimi Wilson and Mary Beth Lagerborg; I doubled their white sauce ingredients and spinach to make it extra moist.

Steps:
- In a saucepan, sauté the scallions in butter until tender. Whisk in flour; whisk in milk all at once. Bring to a boil and cook and stir until the sauce is thickened and bubbly.
- Meanwhile, combine the cracker crumbs (breadcrumbs work too in a pinch) and cheese. Dip chicken breast halves in the crumb mixture to coat lightly; retain remaining crumb mixture. (Note: If freezing the meal for later, seal the remaining crumb mixture in a freezer bag).
- Arrange the breast halves in a greased 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
- Stir the spinach and ham into the white sauce. Spoon the spinach mixture over the chicken. (Can freeze at this point for later; tape the crumb mixture bag to the side. Defrost before baking.).
- Bake, covered, at 350°F for 60 to 75 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with crumbs. Bake 10 minutes more.

JENNIE'S HEAVENLY SLOW COOKER CHICKEN
This is the best chicken slow cooker recipe ever, and I've tried a lot of them. I can't remember where I originally got it from; my version has been tweaked a little. I don't like mushrooms, but the mushrooms in the condensed soup are really big and easy to take out. Serve over hot cooked rice.
