This is an awesome recipe! It is a hit with everyone, even the ones who don't like 'healthy' food. The only changes I made were to omit the sunflower and sesame seeds and raisins, and to replace carob chips with semi-sweet chips. Hope I find more recipes like this!

Good As Gold Chicken (Like Kfc's and Boston's)

It was very good. I took the advice of the previous reviewer and used 1 teaspoon seasoning salt. I used covered pots at the end instead of foil (not sure if that matters)
