This sweet and savory baked chicken is one of those dump-and-bake dinners that feels almost too easy — but it comes out tender, flavorful, and perfect over fluffy rice. It’s a true one-dish meal when paired with rice and a simple veggie on the side.

🛒 Ingredients

• 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cubed)
• 1 cup Catalina dressing
• 1 cup apricot jelly
• 1 packet onion soup mix

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. In a medium bowl, mix together Catalina dressing, apricot jelly, and onion soup mix until well combined.

3. Place cubed chicken into a 9×13 baking dish.

4. Pour the sauce over the chicken and stir until all pieces are evenly coated.

5. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes. (Do not cover with foil — this helps the sauce thicken and caramelize slightly.)

6. Serve hot over rice.

🍽 To Make It a Complete One-Dish Meal

• Spoon over white or jasmine rice to soak up that sweet-savory sauce.

• Add a simple side like steamed broccoli, green beans, or a side salad.
