As a child my Nana would whip this dish up and I always felt like she spent hours making it perfect. Served with hot buttery rice or egg noodles and you have a meal to remember. Such good memories.

How To Make nana's sweet chicken

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 2qt. casserole dish with vegetable spray.

Step 2

In a small bowl mix: dressing, onion soup mix and apricot jam well. Add the cut up peppers to this and mix well until all coated.
Step 3

In the casserole dish pour a quarter of the liquid mixture; top with the chicken breasts (salt and pepper lightly). Pour the remaining liquid mixture over the breasts. Cover pan with foil and bake in oven for 1 hour. Remove foil and continue baking for about 15 minutes, turning the breasts if you wish.
