Cook Time15minutes 
Total Time25minutes 

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breastscut into 1 inch cubes
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil use more if needed

For the Sauce

  • 1 cup orange marmalade
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce we use Sweet Baby Rays original
  • 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce

Instructions

For the Sauce

  • Mix the orange marmalade, BBQ sauce and soy sauce in a small mixing bowl

For the Chicken

  • Dip the chicken in the beaten eggs, shaking off excess egg, then lightly coat with flour
  • In a large skillet or wok, heat the oil, and cook the chicken over medium high heat until lightly brown and slightly crisp. If cooking in batches, remove each batch to a plate, cover and keep warm
  • Add the sauce to the pan, stir in the chicken, and heat over medium heat until thick and bubbling -- about 10 minutes. Serve immediately

Notes

You can use cornstarch instead of flour, although the texture will be slightly different. You can also skip coating the chicken in flour and egg, and just brown the chicken first, although the texture won't be the same.
For extra spice, add hot pepper flakes. For extra seasoning add 1 teaspoon garlic powder or salt and pepper, to taste.

Swiss Chicken Casserole

This was an  easy & tasty casserole, My girls also loved it, which makes it a win win!  I served it with green beans and buttermilk biscuits, which was a great combination.  I have to admit that I forgot to buy the cream of chicken so I had to use the cream of mushroom that I had in the pantry.  I think it was still great!  6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts 6 slices Swiss cheese 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup 1/4 cup milk 2 cups herb-seasoned stuffing mix          (Pepperidge Farm Herb Blend is good) 1/4 cup butter Preheat oven to 350.  Arrange chicken in 12x8x2 baking dish.  Top with Swiss cheese slices.  Combine soup and milk and stir well.  Spoon mixture over chicken and sprinkle with stuffing mix.  Drizzle butter or margarine over crumbs.  Bake for 50 minutes and enjoy!

There is a washable cloth that is attached to the base by Velcro. The unit comes with four of these cloths, two for floors, two for carpets. To use: Pour water into the tank which is closed by a screw cap. No additives are needed as the steam will do the cleaning. To warm the water, simply plug in the unit. While warming, you must prepare your floors by vacuuming or sweeping. The green light will come on when the water is hot enough to start yo...
