Russian Chicken

This recipe is super fast and easy and most people probably have some rendition of it in their recipe collection. Here is the one we use:

Ingredients:

2-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (depending on how "saucy" you want your chicken)
1 8oz. bottle Russian salad dressing (looks like Catalina, I use Wishbone brand)
1 can cranberry sauce (I use whole berry sauce, but you can use jellied)
1 packet dry onion soup mix

Put frozen chicken in the crock pot. Combine the rest of the ingredients and dump on top of the chicken. Cook for 5 hours on low. Serve over rice.
