Apricot Chicken

1 (12 ounce) jar apricot preserves
1 (8 ounce) bottle Russian-style salad dressing
1 packet dry onion soup mix
4 pounds chicken parts like wings.thighs,drumsticks

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

In a medium bowl combine the preserves, salad dressing and soup mix; stir together until well mixed and set aside.

Place chicken pieces skin side down in two lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dishes.

Bake for 30 minutes
.
Brush the skin side of the chicken pieces with the glaze mixture (you will use about 1/2 of the mixture) and return to oven

Reduce temperature to 250 degrees and bake for another 30 minutes

Brush with remaining glaze mixture just before serving.

You can substitute apricot for orange marmalade too !!!!

Can't do fish, that sets it off. I'll try the chicken recipe though and never though of ground chicken so I'll try that too. Thank you!!

Have you tried fish? One recipe I love for chicken is: Boneless, skinless chicken breast cut in portion size, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese and 2 tlbs bread crumbs. Wash and pat dry the chicken. In a separate bowl combine the cheese and bread crumbs. Coat the chicken with the bread and cheese. Place on a baking sheet. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. 161 calories 3g fat and 0g fiber. This is a recipe from weight watchers.

Another idea is ground chicken. Great for grilling.

Good luck with the gallbladder. I needed to have mine removed. You never know what will set it off.

I don't want gallbladder surgery so I'm going low fat, low cholesterol and no beef. I do eat poultry because that's the only thing I can tolerate. I put my whole family on same diet because I know its good for them. They don't mind, but we get very bored and I get tempted. But, I know if I fall of the wagon, I could end up under the knife. I've lost 33 lbs and am on a great exercise plan so I'm having fun that way, but getting bored with food. Got any ideas??
