With a fridge low on grub and odd and end leftovers, one tends to get a little inventive-especially if one does not have a microdork (for those who don't know micro+dork = term for microwave). If you have chicken, italian dressing, and a fruit or veggie, you've got a meal in a rut.
For your veggie (Let's say: potatoe) you may boil them until they are easily stabable or you can bake them. time usually matters to the size. small ones with holes poked in them that appear 'baby' size could bake for half an hour where as stabbed standard sized ones can take about an hour at 400 degrees. A potatoe isn't done until they are kinda squishy.
When everything is finally done, take a plate with a smaller than average sized bowl in its center and place the chicken around the little bowl and the watered down italian juice into the little bowl. Use a desured sized plate to serve your potatoe on while everyone takes chicken to break up on their plate or eats as is and dunks their pieces into the juice oriental style.
CHICKEN RUT
Take the chicken you have off the bone into desired sized chunks (Works best if your chicken is breast) and toss them into a saute' pan with italian dressing half way up the chicken with 1/2 c. water at least. Just enough that the dressing is watered down so it's not as strong anymore yet doesn't lose it's taste. Turn or mix or however you want to make sure the dressing coats all of the chicken on every side. Make sure not to boil away your chickens dressing because you will use it later.- You can use your fave dressing but this works well with pregnant women-even with mild to low morning sickness in the first few months of pregnancy. If you have strong morning sickness through the whole pregnancy, I feel for you.

- As stated before about how you can use your fave veggie or fruit, you can also use your fave meat as well.
