Thank you for such an easy scrumptious chicken recipe! Used thighs, with skin. Then, made a combo of black, wild and jasime rice, in the rice cooker. Topped the rice with the Watercress Cilantro Sauce found on Recipezaar, (but I didnâ€™t save it and canâ€™t find it againâ€¦ there was yogurt in it, I remember). Anyway it was mmmm mmmm good. Next time I might just have to throw in some jalpenos somewhere there! Will use Papa Bearâ€™s recipe when chicken is called for in salads.

A moist, delicious chicken that was perfectly seasoned. I used lemon pepper seasoning (w/o salt) since the bread crumbs have salt in them already and used only one lemon. I couldn't fold chicken in half to bake because my fan-assisted oven likes to burn anything that isn't flat as a pancake. So, I pounded the chicken to an even thickness (in a ziploc to avoid mess), placed on foil, squeezed lemon juice, drizzled oil, seasoned with lemon pepper and then dredged in breadcrumbs on a paper plate. Couldn't have been any easier or any better. We'll have this regularly. Oh, and I cooked for 35 minutes to perfection.

This made up fairly easily, but I had problems keeping the breading on. I think next time I won't turn it. Nice flavor, but I did use more than 1 teaspoon of the lemon pepper and cooked mine for about 10 minutes longer than stated and it turned out nice and juicy. Thanks

I live in Northern California in the town of Placerville. It's a one hour drive East to Lake Tahoe or one hour West to our State Capitol, Sacramento. Great location. I have been overdue for an update!!! 1/10 My Boy's are doing well. Nick is still in Australia and Jon is still here at home. They both graduated high school last year. I hope NIck will come to the US for college, Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo!!! (we'll see) He may stay down under for college :( Jon is working and figuring out life....he plans on being an entrepreneur im sure. We have two dogs, Jewel and Bob both adopted from the local shelter. They love each other. I love spring and fall the most and love being outdoors. My Boss passed away last year :( I miss him soooo much. This last year has been very hard for me. I am doing better now. Hoping 2010 brings lots of health and happiness to all :) <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/beartag_1_1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /><a href=http://photobucket.com target=_blank> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/adopted_1_1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/pacbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /> <img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Octoberevent.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/Other/photo-swap-7sticky.jpg alt= /><img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a142/callylanne/candy.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-Participant.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/craze-e2banner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket />
