Get ready to fall in love with this ridiculously easy and mouthwateringly delicious 4 Ingredient Chicken recipe. It’s perfect for those busy weeknights when you want something quick yet scrumptious, or when you’re looking to impress guests without spending hours in the kitchen. With just four simple ingredients, you can create a dish that’s packed with flavor and has a delightful balance of sweet and savory. Here’s how to make it:

Ingredients:

  • 8 chicken thighs (on the bone with skin, but feel free to use your favorite cuts)
  • 1 package dry French onion soup mix
  • 1 (8 oz) bottle Russian dressing (Wishbone Russian dressing is recommended)
  • 1 small jar of apricot preserves (or about a cupful)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, setting the stage for a perfect roast.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the dry French onion soup mix, Russian dressing, and apricot preserves. Stir these together until you have a smooth, well-blended sauce.
  3. Arrange your chicken pieces in a baking pan. You can opt for a single layer for even cooking. Sprinkle the chicken with a bit of pepper to taste. The soup mix has enough saltiness, so there’s no need for additional salt.
  4. Pour the sauce you’ve just mixed over the chicken, ensuring each piece is generously coated with the flavorful mixture.
  5. Place the pan in the preheated oven and roast it uncovered. You’ll want to give it about 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, depending on your oven and the size of the chicken pieces. The goal is a beautifully browned and crispy skin with tender, juicy meat underneath.
  6. Don’t forget to baste the chicken several times during the cooking process. This will keep it moist and infuse it with even more flavor.
  7. Once the chicken is beautifully caramelized and the juices run clear when you poke it with a knife, it’s done.
