NOT WEIGHT WATCHERS CHICKEN



NOT weight watchers chicken image

This casserole takes time to make but, if you brown your chicken the night before and even make your white sauce ahead of time it's just a matter of putting it together. Let's just say this recipe is not for someone who is trying to lose weight. I'm always on a diet but I still had some and it was a treat.

Tips:

  • For a crispy chicken, sear the chicken pieces in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just thaw them before using.
  • You can adjust the amount of honey in the glaze to taste. For a sweeter glaze, add more honey.
  • If you don't have orange juice, you can use white wine or chicken broth instead.
  • Serve the chicken with a side of steamed vegetables or mashed potatoes.
