The recipe is from "Betty Crocker 4 Ingredient Dinners" (Wiley, 2003, $22.95), a collection of 120 main dishes whose characteristics are summarized on the cover: prep in minutes, easy homemade tonight.
This chicken recipe comes with a note:
Add coleslaw from the deli and warm apple crisp, or make your own sundaes for dessert.
The "four-ingredient" rule doesn't include such routine extras as salt, but that's no big deal a pinch or two rounds out the seasoning for this uncomplicated chicken special.
Preparation time for this dish is 10 minutes; cooking time is 20 minutes.
