Cranberry Chicken

Sharing is caring!

I have been nervous all week to make this dish.  We have never had it and with such picky eaters I was worried it wouldn’t go over too well, I was even a little worried I wouldn’t like it.  Even as I popped it in the oven I still wasn’t so sure but soon enough the house smelled amazing and my fears vanished.  I pulled it out and sampled it and it was amazing for such a simple dish.  Now my pickiest eater wont eat homemade mashed potatoes, burgers, ketchup or basically anything that doesn’t come out of a can or freezer.  I tried again tonight to get her to try what we were eating, “one bite and you can spit it out if you don’t like it” I told her for what seems to be the millionth time.  She reluctantly took a tiny nibble and lo and behold she liked it and picked out a huge chicken leg for dinner.  I was so happy I could cry!!!  I figured if she liked it the rest of the picky eaters should too, and they did.  It was fabulous, I served it with rice and spooned some leftover juice over the rice…to die for.  I will admit while cleaning up and putting away the leftovers I ate another chicken leg, it is irresistible and with 4 ingredients you cant go wrong with this dinner.  Please please try this recipe, yes it sounds weird and you too might be just as hesitant as I was but one bite and you will be hooked just like we are.

  1. You can also try leaving out the honey and cranberry and using just the Catalina dressing, the onion soup mix and use about 3/4 jar of smuckers apricot jam. Same ides, slightly different – we call it sticky chicken!
