Sweet and Tangy Chicken image

This recipe is great for people who cook the semi-homemade way. I got this from my microwave cookbook and that's the only way I know how to cook it. You can even change up the preserves for a different flavor.

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 26m

Yield 4-6 pieces, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 roasting chicken, cut-up
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 1/4 ounces dry onion soup mix
1/2 cup Russian salad dressing
1 cup apricot-pineapple preserves
hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • In a 12x8x2 inch dish, arrange chicken pieces with the thickest, meaty pieces to the outside edges of the dish.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, soup mix, dressing and preserves.
  • Spread this mixture over the chicken, coating each piece well.
  • Cover with wax paper.
  • Microwave on High for 18-22 minutes. (If your microwave doesn't have a turntable, turn chicken 1/4 turn halfway through cooking time.).
  • Let stand 5-10 minutes before you serve it so the chicken absorbs the flavor of the sauce.
  • Serve over rice.
