Sweet Island Chicken

SWEET ISLAND CHICKEN






This chicken dish is one of our go to meals. It is really easy, and so delicious. Plus, the kids LOVE it! 


Ingredients:

4 small chicken breasts or 2 large breasts cut in half

1 16 oz bottle of Russian salad dressing

1 20 oz can of pineapple chunks, drained

1 pkg of dry onion soup mix

3/4 of a 32 oz. jar of apricot pineapple preserves

1 tsp salt

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp pepper





DIRECTIONS:


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix Russian dressing, onion soup mix, preserves together in a mixing bowl. Add drained pineapple chunks. Add seasonings and stir until completely combined.
Trim chicken, and if using large breasts, cut them in half and put into 9 x 13 baking dish.  Pour the combined sauce over the chicken.




  Cover a cookie sheet in tinfoil and put it on bottom oven rack with chicken dish on top rack to bake. Sometimes it can bubble over a little and it will help just in case that happens.





Bake the chicken for one hour. Pull out of the oven and cut into the thickest part of the breast to make sure the juice runs clear. You can serve this on its own, or over a bed of cooked rice.

OUR BETTER THAN FAST FOOD ONION RINGS

Not much batter, light, crispy and delicious. It seems like it would be overwhelming, but actually it is well worth the time. Start out with 4 large white onions. We have found these work the best.  They have a really great flavor. Next, slice them up. If you do them a little on the thin side, they cook up really nicely and are a perfect consistency. When you slice them, only keep the bigger rings. The middle pieces are not as good for the rings. I usually only keep the first 4 to 5 outer rings and toss the rest. Next, add the seasonings to the flour. I have 3 bowls that I set up for flour and wet ingredients. The first bowl will have ...

Add flour and butter into the mixer and mix until butter is pea size. Add the sugar, salt, baking powder and mix until combined.  Last, add milk to the flour mixture and mix until combined. If the dough is a little sticky, add an extra Tbsp of flour to the dough. Next, generously flour the surface you will be rolling dough out on. Roll out the dough until it is around a half inch thick and fold the dough over itself in half and roll out again. Repeat until you have folded the dough back onto itself at least 6 times.  Even if it seems thin, it will rise. After it has been rolled out multiple times, use a biscuit cutter or a cup about the size you want your biscuits to be. (I actually use a kids IKEA ...

Party Chili Cheese Dip

In our experience, if you bring this Chili Cheese Dip to a party, you will NEVER bring any leftovers home! CHILI CHEESE DIP INGREDIENTS 2 pkg cream cheese, softened 1 family size can of Stagg Chili (or whatever chili you prefer) 1 Large bag of shredded cheddar cheese Green Onion  Sliced Olives  Preheat oven to 350. In baking sheet (we use a 9x13) smear cream cheese evenly over the bottom of the pan.   Top with the chili (stir chili inside can to begin with so you don't have excess liquid and it is all incorporated) spread chili evenly over the cream cheese.  Top that with enough shredded cheeses to completely cover the chili. On top of cheese add green onion and olives to taste. Bake in 350 degrees oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until cheese is completely melted. Serve warm with Frito Scoops.
