Sweet Apricot Chicken Recipe
We've made this sweet apricot chicken recipe countless times and while the original recipes uses the oven, you can actually make this dish in the slow cooker or crockpot.
This is a really easy recipe - total ingredient count is 4!
We use Wishbone Russing dressing but I've discovered that not all grocery stores carry this dressing.
I've also cooked this dish without the dressing - not on purpose...I simply forgot! It still tasted great!
You can put all the ingredients together the night before, place the pot on the base in the morning and you're set for dinner.
This is best served with white rice.
