  1. I made this on 9/22/08 for mine and SO's dinner.As Chef Jellyqueen did, I used boneless skinless chicken breasts and used garlic powder instead of garlic salt. I also added a bit more seasoning salt than the recipe called for.I didn't know what you meant by seasoned pepper, so regular ground black pepper was used.Since I used boneless skinless breasts, the baking time was cut back to 45 minutes.The chicken never did crisp up, but that was o.k. it was still good enough to be made again. Thanks for posting and, "Keep Smiling :)"
     
  2. I needed a recipe for some boneless chicken breast. I decided to use this recipe, and boy am I glad that I did. This one goes straight into my "Tried and True" cookbook. I used garlic powder instead of garlic salt, and just added a little extra seasoned salt. This chicken was not only good but it looked just like fried chicken, but instead of being dry, it was very moist and tender!!!! Thanks for the great recipe.
     
  3. Super EZ.. I guess my taste buds are failing now too, but I felt it needed more UMPH. . This goes right into my DS's CB, thanks for the ease!
     
  4. What a easy wonderful recipe.! I followed your recipe just like you have it and we had a very very good dinner! We had cheese potatoes and brocolli with it to complete your wonderful chicken. Thank You for sharing!! Hugs
     
  5. WONDERFUL! Better than I anticipated. I did use butter and added a couple of tablespoons of olive oil to prevent the butter from burning. It worked beautifully. I used 3 thighs, and 2 large breasts--each breast cut in half to yield 4 breast pieces. After I put the chicken pieces in, skin side down, I lifted each slightly with tongs and tilted the pan to allow the butter/oil to run under the piece. They browned and crisped perfectly and I didn't have any trouble turning the pieces. Crispy skin, juicy meat...exquisite.

  2. So easy, yet moist and delicous! I only made two small changes. First,I used butter instead of margarine. Second, I used extra seaoned salt to give it a little more spice (my family loves spice). My DH, who usually complains about eating chicken, loved it! Thanks Claudia Dawn for a great chicken recipe!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I live in Northern Indiana with my husband of 37 years and best friend, Evan. Due to unfortunate circumstances and God's grace, we are raising our two beautiful grandchildren from our daughter, Chris, who lost her battle with breast cancer after a hard, four year battle. It is a responsibility that I do not take lightly. God has blessed us with these kids and it is an honor to be able to raise them. That's not to say, it's easy. Organization is the key. We do lots of meal planning and advance preparation. <br /><br />Evan &amp; I enjoy eating out at fine restaurants and then trying to re-create gourmet meals at home. Unfortunately (?) we are such good cooks that we are usually disappointed when eating out because we know that what we prepare tastes better (and less expensive). Therefore, we usually only order something that we haven't made at home. <br /><br />We love to cook together and spend many hours cooking for family and friends. Quite honestly, Evan is the better cook in the family. He has a knack for knowing what flavors and spices blend well together and has created many original creations. <br /><br />I love to find and try out new recipes - which is why I visit Recipezaar often. We've added many of your shared recipes to my public cookbook titled Permanent Edition. I only post recipes that are our favorites and feel that others will enjoy them. I look for ease of preparation AND outstanding flavor. If I post a recipe that's a little more work, it's because the end result deserves the extra effort. <br /><br />If we had a month off with no work, no responsibilities, and no financial issues; we'd spent time on the ocean in Oregon. My husband grew up in Seattle and spent summers at Cannon Beach (Oregon). I've only been there twice but absolutely love the area. <br /><br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/vjuhl/MEPcookathon.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img alt= /><br />src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket&gt; <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg alt= /></p>
