Two Easy AND Delicious Recipes

1. Sweet N' Sour Chicken

*my apologies for not having a picture of this recipes. I refuse to make food without a pic or a good recommendation. So I give this a 4.2 stars recommendation.

Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts
1 C (roughly one jar) apricot jam
1/2 C dried onions
1 C Italian Dressing ( I prefer Kraft's Zesty fat free Italian dressing)
1 Bell pepper (preferably green, yellow, or orange)sliced
1 can chunked pineapple
Half an onion sliced

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix jam, onions, and dressing together. Slice raw chicken into small chunks. Pour half the dressing mixture over the chicken. Cook for 15 minutes. Add sliced bell peppers, sliced onion, and full can of pineapple (no juice) and the rest of the dressing. Cook for another 15 minutes.
