Quick and Delicious Chicken

[siglinde99]

This recipe comes from "In a Manor of Cooking", a 40th anniversary project sponsored by the Manor Park Community Association in 1988. Manor Park is the next community but one, a fairly mixed community that ranges from subsidized housing to luxury homes bordering Rokcliffe Park. I decided to try this recipe because I already had all the ingredients.

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 envelope dry onion soup mix

Arrange chicken breasts in single layer in short casserole dish. Combine remaining ingredients, mix well and spoon over chicken. Bake at 350F for at least 1 hour or until chicken is tender.

Serves 6

The chicken is really tender. Next time, I might add a little hot sauce.

I find ketchup to be quite sweet, so I would probably just decrease the sugar a bit. Barbecue sauce would probably give some of the extra zing I was missing. I like a spicy barbecue sauce.

I made this as 1/3 the original recipe, because it was a lot for me too.
