I got this recipe off of Regis and Kathy Lee back in 1996. I have not yet tried it because no one in my family likes this kind of stuff, but it sounds so good to me. Please somebody try it and let me know how it is.

This is very tasty. I made mine with french dressing, since that's what I had. Side dishes were brown rice, fried plantains and snow peas. Delicious! My one criticism is the recommended cooking time. Cooking chicken breast on 350 for more than 40 minutes is questionable. I can't believe it recommends 1 1/2 hours. i don't get that at all. I cooked mine for 45 minutes, and that was pushing it, as the chicken was on the verge of losing the rest of its juices. When I've made the mistake of cooking chicken breast in the oven over 45 min and at 350, in the past, it's turned out very dry, which means we ddin't enjoy it and fed the rest to our dog.

    This recipe looks simple and interesting but was very disappointing. When it was done cooking, there was a thick layer of oil floating on top and the flavor tasted like it was trying to approximate barbeque but wasn't quite managing it. I'd rather save myself the money and just bake the chicken in a bottle of barbeque sauce, it tastes better too.

    Delicious served it with cous cous with raisins and toasted slivered almonds and steamed broccoli. I decided to try this recipe because it reminded me of one my mother-in-law made. she used catalina(not sure of sp.) dressing, but is similar to russian and canned grapefruit. I always liked the chicken part but apricots are far better.
