Baked Lemon Chicken

SUBMITTED BY: Marion Lowery

"THIS lovely chicken is as good cold as it is right out of the oven. It's moist, tender and lemony with a nice crunch. It's a delicious picnic entree as well as a wonderful meal with scalloped or baked potatoes and a fresh green salad on the side. -Marion Lowery, Medford, Oregon"

I would have liked this but mine came out too soggy...Any suggestions on how to make crispier/crunchier would be great!

This recipe is delicious! The first time I made it, I followed the recipe exactly. The second time, however, I doubled the lemon/butter mixture and also added about 2 T. of honey. This is what made it perfect for me. :]Also, the bread crumbs I had were Italian flavored. My husband says it's his new favorite. Thanks so much for sharing!

Fast, easy and delicious. The chicken has a light lemony flavor and is moist with a delicately crisp coating. Definately a keeper.
