This recipe was a childhood favorite of mine. It is so nice for me to be able to make it for my children and see them enjoy it! This baked chicken is easy to make and is SO delicious!
Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 1 hour
Ingredients:
-4 to 5 split chicken breasts on the bone (skin on)

Next Step:
-Preheat oven to 350 F and set aside a large baking dish.
