Categories     Chicken

Time 1h35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

3 lbs boneless chicken thighs or 3 lbs chicken breasts
1 cup thousand island dressing (I recommend Thousand Island Dressing)

Steps:

  • Arrange chicken thighs in greased 9 x 13 inch pan.
  • Combine remaining 3 ingredients in small bowl. Pour over chicken. Bake, covered, in 350ºF (175ºC) oven for about 1 1/2 hours, turning chicken halfway through cooking time, until no longer pink inside. Remove cover for last 15 minutes to thicken sauce if desired.
  • **For OAMC: place all ingredients into a large ziploc bag. Label and Freeze. TO serve: Defrost overnight, dump ingredients into baking pan and cook until done, about 1 1/2 hours.**.
  • I think this would also work in a crockpot as well.

This recipe is absolutely delicious. It is very summery recipe since you can grill and enjoy a nice summer afternoon. I got this recipe from the Publix Family Style Magazine Summer 2010 edition. I have made the recipe once and cant wait to make it again. It is very good and can be made pretty quickly!
