Mandarin Chicken

This is a recipe I found in one of my mom's cookbooks.  It's titled "remedies for the 'I don't cook' Syndrome" This is a favorite with my family.  It's really simple and is great for company.  We just triple the sauce, add more chicken and use a 9 by 13 inch pan.   The only downfall with it at all (and if you actually plan ahead (which I don't) it's not one at all) is the fact that in needs to marinate overnight so it calls for some prep work.  I also love this recipe because it saves on dishes.  I usually just mix the sauce right in the pan then add the chicken and flip it in the morning.

Mandarin Chicken
1/4 cup Soy Sauce
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup catsup
4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2-3 cups cooked rice

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, and catsup.  Place chicken breasts in 8 inch square glass pan or similar dish.  Pour sauce over chicken breasts.  Cover and marinate 24 hours in fridge.  Bake, in sauce, covered 45 minutes at 350 degrees and an additional 10-15 minutes uncovered.  Serve on rice.
