While chicken is baking, prepare Chinese Lemon Sauce. Let chicken stand 5 minutes; cut each piece crosswise into about 5 slices. Pour sauce over chicken.

Our baked version retains the tangy lemon and garlic flavors of the original while eliminating half the fat. Serve with broccoli or broccolini, a new form of broccoli with sparse flowerets.From "Betty Crocker Best Chicken Cookbook." Text Copyright 1999 General Mills.
