This recipe was given to me by a former patient's wife, Mrs. Feiger, many years ago. I was tired of making the same things for dinner and asked for a new idea. It is so simple but so delicious! Many people have asked for the recipe and were surprised at how simple it was. Please follow the directions exactly, because if you don't, the results will not be the same as mine! You can use any chicken parts that you like, but we love to use wings and serve them as an appetizer. Reheated, they taste great the next day, if not better (should you have any left!). Time does not include overnight marinading. Note: For less calories you can remove the skin from chicken parts and use low fat dressing. Also keep in mind that you are discarding a large part of the marinade, so those calories and fats are not consumed.

Steps:
- Mix cranberry sauce, soup mix and dressing together. You can break it up with your cleaned hand;it is much faster and better that way.
- Add chicken wings (or other chicken parts) and mix well together.
- Marinade overnight, mixing the chicken once or twice.
- Turn oven to 400 degrees.
- Spray cookie sheet/s with Pam or similar spray. Place chicken parts on it, making sure they don't touch each other. DO NOT POUR MARINADE OVER CHICKEN! If you do, you will get stewed chicken with a soupy consistency, not oven-fried!
- Bake at 400 degrees for one hour (check chicken after 45 minutes to make sure it doesn't burn. Depending on your oven, it may be ready after 45 minutes).
- Either discard the marinade or use it to make more chicken, but don't use it as is, since raw chicken was in it. You can try and cook it thoroughly, and perhaps use it for some sauce, but this chicken is intended to be eaten without additional sauce, especially the wings. Great finger-lickin' food!

[email protected]This recipe is a great way to save money on your grocery bill. Chicken thighs are a relatively inexpensive cut of meat, and this recipe makes a lot of food. I was able to feed my family of four for under $20.

[email protected]I made a few modifications to make this recipe healthier. I used whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour and baked the chicken instead of frying it. It was still crispy and flavorful, but with less fat.
