Chicken with a Chinese Accent 

(I've used this favourite recipe since I was a teacher in 4H 30 years ago)

   6 - 7 boned chicken breasts
   1/4 cup Soya Sauce
   1/4 cup Cider Vinegar
   1/8 cup Brown Sugar
   1 10oz can Mushroom Soup    
   1 onion chopped

   Place chicken breasts into medium casserole dish.  
   Mix Soya Sauce, Mushroom Soup, Vinegar and Brown Sugar together.  
   Pour over chicken breasts and bake in 350 oven for approximately 45 mins
  I also cook this on top of the stove in a saucepan, pouring sauce over chicken and simmering for about the same time.
