This Church Supper Chicken is the kind of dish that filled casserole carriers at potlucks, funeral luncheons, and Sunday fellowship meals across rural America for generations. With just three humble ingredients, it delivers golden, tender chicken bathed in a rich, savory glaze—no browning, no stirring, no fuss.
It’s what busy homemakers made after morning chores: simple, reliable, and deeply comforting.

Ingredients You’ll Need

(9×13-inch glass baking dish)

💡 Church Supper Tips:
  • Use bone-in, skin-on chicken—it stays juicy and adds richness.
  • Don’t cover while baking—skin crisps, sauce reduces to a glossy glaze.
  • Arrange chicken skin-side up—it self-bastes as it cooks.

Step-by-Step Instructions (Golden, Tender, Foolproof)

1. Prep & Preheat

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Place chicken pieces in a glass baking dish (metal can react with soup mix).
