Amazing!! I too doubled the italian seasoning and the brown sugar. No leftovers!!
Munchkin Time
Thank you, Lisa! So happy there were no leftovers!

You should at least specify WHAT kind 9f pan to use, a 9x13, or a sheet pan?? That makes a difference you know!
Munchkin Time
You can use any size of the pan as long the chicken is not crowded.
Darryl Hill
I don’t have Italian seasoning so can I use hidden valley ranch seasoning
Munchkin Time
I don't see why not, although the taste might be a little different 😀
RENEE C.
My family really likes this dish. I double the brown sugar and dressing cuz we like it as a gravy over the mashed potatoes that I serve with it.
Munchkin Time
Ooo that sounds delicious! Thank you for the feedback, Renee!
Janice
Do you just use the Italian dressing mix dry or do you mix as instructed in on package?
Munchkin Time
Thank you for asking, Janice! I use it dry.

How much time should I add for bone in thighs?
Munchkin Time
Hi Alysa, I would add 10 more minutes of baking and check if its cooked thru. Hope this helps!
