Sweet & Tangy Chicken

I'm a huge fan of this recipe. It's simple, fast, and easy. This probably isn't the healthiest of recipes, but it definitely tastes good :) I'm throwing it up here because the pin isn't working and it makes me sad. I swiped this recipe from Syrup & Biscuits.

INGREDIENTS:
8 chicken thighs (you can use a whole chicken or other parts)
1 package dry French onion soup mix
1 (8 oz bottle) Russian dressing (you could use French or Catalina or Thousand Island)
1 small jar of apricot preserves (or about a cupful).

DIRECTIONS:
Mix all ingredients, except chicken, in a bowl.

Place chicken pieces in a baking pan. Sprinkle with pepper. No extra salt is needed (if you want you can adapt this recipe to a crockpot).

Pour sauce over chicken and make sure it’s coated well.

You can either choose to cook it in the crockpot or oven. I generally choose the crockpot but I'll include both sets of instructions:

Roast uncovered at 400 degrees for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes or until chicken is done. Baste several times during cooking.

OR

Simmer in the crockpot on high for 5 hours or on low for 8 hours.

Serve over a bed of hot rice.

She took this pic but mine looked just like this.
