    Here is a quick one: use 1 env. ranch dressing mix and
    1/4 cup bread crumbs - mix dressing mix and bread crumbs together in plastic bag and drop chicken into the bag and shake to coat. Put in hot oil to brown, then turn down and add about 1 l/2 cups of hot water and cover with lid. Slow cook until chicken is done (about 45 mins.) You may have to add a little more water if it cooks to dry. Serve with mashed potatoes and spoon the gravy over them. Really good.

    Prepare a package of dressing/stuffing... add a little milk to can of Mushroom soup .... remove skin from chicken parts.
    Put thin layer of dressing in bottom of 9 x 13 pan, next add chicken parts,
    Lay remaining dressing on top, then cover with diluted Mushroom soup....
    Cover with foil, bake in 350 degree oven 1 and 1/2 hour (or so)....
    Quick to prepare, no "watching" .... delicious.

    I see some more ideas came while I made and ate supper!

    While the chicken baked, I also did two batches of cookies, baking one tray at a time .... and continued the marathon after supper.

    So .... I had some bread that I was planning to crumb and have in the freezing for stuffing. It became fine crumbs. Mixed in some spices/herbs/salt/pepper. Breaded the chicken and baked with foil on top.

    Nothing too exceptional ... though til it was suggested, it was probably the furthest from my mind for possibilities!

    Cooked some rice. Frozen peas. And some homemade cranberry sauce. Delightful supper .... with a warm cookie for dessert! :0)

    And now .... lots of chicken leftovers for the next few days and the freezer!

    Thanks everyone ... and I'll use some of these other ideas another time too!

    Just a thought.If you like soup....put leftover chicken in slo cooker or big pot on stove....add some veggies.I put mine in slo cooker last eve....along with a couple stalks of celery,an onion,few carrots & lots of seasonings.Filled with water,brought it to boil,then let it simmer overnt.

    Will strain & discard the veggies & bay leaves,then when cold,will remove most of the fat,& freeze in portions I use for making soup.The meat will be used for today's dinner.You can get good broth using cooked or raw meat.So handy & such good flavor.

    I haven't made soup much this summer ... and will soon be back into regular brews of it in my crockpot. Love the aroma in my home all day as it cooks! And the convenience of frozen batches for later use, too.

    Another good "next time" recipe...

    Make stuffing, either Stove Top (I got the recipe from the box) or homemade, and add an egg to it mixing it well.
    Pound out the chicken to about a quarter inch thick, place some stuffing on the center of it and roll it up. The recipe calls for a can of Cream of Chicken or Mushroom soup poured over the top and bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 165. I make gravy from chicken stock and use that instead.
