Okay, you can visit your local Colonel Sanders if you want chicken in a hurry, or you can try this Amish recipe. Â But I hope you aren't in too big if a hurry because this takes 4 - 5 hours to bake. So I can't, for the life of me, figure out why it is called "chicken in a hurry" unless it is just a tongue-in-cheek title. Â Sometimes, with Amish recipes, the names are as just as good as the food.
This recipe  comes to us from an Amish woman in Plain City, Ohio.  Geez, again, I hope you aren't in a hurry.  If you aren't in a hurry, then I'm sure this will be delicious and I'd highly recommend giving it a try!
Actually, though, the meal is super fast to prepare...so that is probably the genesis of the name.  It literally takes 5 minutes, so you can prepare it and focus on other stuff.  If you have a slow-cooker, use that. But she says you can also bake in a 9 X 13 inch baking dish at 325 for 2 hours.  Again, not exactly a rush job,but it is the prep that is quick.  Enjoy!
