EZ Chicken Dish

3 pounds chicken

1 to 2 envelopes Sloppy Joe Seasoning Mix

1 (16 ounce) can pineapple tidbits..Drain and reserve juice

1/4 cup reserved pineapple juice

1/4 cup vinegar

1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar

Place the sloppy joe mix in a zip lock bag.Addd the chicken a few pieces at a time. Shake bag to coat. If you want a thicker coating, use 2 packages of the sloppy joe mix. In the bottom of a baking dish, place the drained pineapple tidbits. Put the coated chicken pieces over the pineapple tidbits..Skin side up! Combine the 1/4 cup pineapple juice, vinegar, brown sugar and any remaining seasoning mix. Spoon this mixture over the chicken. Bake at 375* for approx. one hour. Baste chicken whileit cooks.

**NOTE** I have found that people really like the pineapple in this dish. For that reason I will use an additional small can of drained pineapple tidbits. I also always keep an extra envelope of the sloppy joe mix on hand as sometimes I use 2 packages!
