This is very simple but is delicious especially if you are short on ingredients





Brown your chicken pieces in a little bit of oil in a frying pan. Place the chicken in a baking dish. Wash 5 medium potatoes and cut in half lengthwise. Place in dish with chicken. Lay 3 or four slices of onion over the potatoes and chicken. Pour one 8 ounce can of tomato sauce over the chicken and potatoes, season with pepper and a little salt. Take the tomato sauce can and fill it 3/4 of the way with water to rinse out the can and then use this to get all the brown bits from the frying pan over medium heat. Pour this over the chicken, cover tightly with foil and bake at 350 for 45 minutes to 1 hour. My kids love this and it is easy and makes little mess to clean up.
Hmmm... I like to take a chicken breast and pound it so it is thinner, and then I put aspargus, bacon, and cheese in the middle and wrap the chicken around it. I hold it in place with some twine or toothpicks and then you just broil it in the over. Very tasty...
