Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ðF (200ðC).
  2. In a shallow dish, combine 1/3 cup of the cream of chicken soup with 1/4 cup of milk; set aside.
  3. Place 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour on a piece of waxed paper or a small plate.
  4. Place 1 1/2 cups of finely crushed Herb-Seasoned Stuffing on a separate piece of waxed paper or plate.
  5. Pat the chicken breasts dry, then lightly coat each piece in the flour, shaking off any excess.
  6. Dip the flour-coated chicken into the soup-milk mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.
  7. Roll the wet chicken in the crushed stuffing, pressing gently to adhere.
  8. Arrange the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet.
  9. Drizzle the chicken with 2 tablespoons of melted margarine or butter.
  10. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and no longer pink in the center.
  11. While the chicken bakes, combine the remaining soup, 1/4 cup milk, chopped parsley, and lemon juice in a small saucepan.
  12. Heat the sauce over low heat, stirring occasionally, until warmed through.
  13. Serve the crispy chicken immediately, topped with the warm sauce.
