How To Make 3 ingredient apricot chicken

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees C (350 degrees F). Get out a 9x13 baking dish.

Step 2

Place the chicken skin side up in a single layer to cover the bottom of your 9x13 baking dish. I used 5 thighs and 5 legs.
Step 3

In a mixing bowl, add the soup mix, dressing, and preserves/jam. Stir together. I used Thousand Island dressing.
Step 4

Pour mixture over the chicken.
Step 5

Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until internal temp is 74° C (165° F).
Step 6

Serve with sides of your choice, enjoy. Spoon the sauce over potatoes, pasta, or rice.
