This recipe is from a friend's mom, a family favourite for over 35 years. It never disappoints. I bet you've heard this before. This is the best baked chicken you have ever tasted. Such a bold statement, but truly, once you taste this wonderful chicken, you will agree. Delicious, tender, crispy chicken, coated in a sweet and spicy, lemony glaze. Do not substitute - the secret ingredient is the corn flake crumbs! Please note: The overnight blending time for the sauce is not listed. You may substitute the breasts for a whole cut up chicken or assorted pieces, your choice.
