Oregano Chicken Recipe

Oregano Chicken Recipe Rating 4

Salad dressing mix and a generous sprinkling of oregano add the rich herb flavor to this tender baked chicken from Nancy Moore of Candler, North Carolina. It's priced right at just 83 cents a serving and great over rice or noodles.

Being low cost is a bonus. The main point is that the flavor is excellent and it is quick to make.
