I do a chicken and rice dish that is delicious. I spread rice on the bottom of the pan. I then take an onion and a can of mushrooms and spread them on top of the rice. On top of that, I put pieces of chicken (I usually use thighs and take the skin off, but you could leave the skin on and use whatever pieces you want). On top of the chicken, I sprinkle pepper and garlic and some onion soup mix. Then I take two cans of condensed mushroom soup and one can of water and pour it all on top. Cook covered for 1-1/2 hours at 350, then uncover, sprinkle some paprika on top and cook for another half hour. It's absolutely delicious and it's a main and side dish in one.

easiest and delicious: pour duck sauce over chicken and bake covered for 1.5 hours then uncover last 10 min. no one believes it's just duck sauce.
also: cornish hen (or chicken but I don't need that much) covered in greek seasoning and garlic salt, pop open a beer can, shove it up the chicken, and bake for 45 min on 400 so the can is standing with the chicken sitting on top of it. comes out amazing and u can chop veggies around it for a side dish at the same time in the oven. be careful when it's done and you pour out the beer--it's going to be hot!

The duck sauce is my kids favorite. The only difference is I cook it uncovered for 2 hours.

Here are a few ideas:
- 11/2 tsp paprika, 2T. honey, 2T. mustard, 2 cloves garlic, minced, salt and pepper.
-(has to marinate overnight officially, I just poke chicken with a knife to let the flavor penetrate):
2-3 cloves garlic, 1/4 cup oil, 1 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper. Before putting in oven, sprinkle some flour.
- 1/3 cup oil mixed with 2T. paprika, 1 T. garlic powder, 1T. onion powder 1 tsp salt
