So my mom told me about this recipe that my sister told her about…yes, that is how my family works, you tell one of us something and within 24 hours the rest of us will know– just a bunch of hens clucking around 🙂 Anyway, the Cranberry Chicken Recipe that my sister had is only a couple of ingredients so I thought I’d give it a try. Boy am I glad that we did! My whole family gave it rave reviews and it was easy to make. And even better, it can double as a crock pot recipe!
If you are looking for some delicious Thanksgiving Style home cooking I highly suggest making this Cranberry Chicken Recipe with a side of mashed potatoes, stuffing, and green beans.
