Baked Lemon Chicken

Servings: 4

What You Need:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
½ cup butter or margarine
¼ cup, plus two teaspoons of lemon juice
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt (You might want to increase this because mine tasted a little on the bland side)
½ teaspoon pepper

What You Do:
1. Rinse the chicken in cold, running water. Place in an oven proof baking pan that has been lightly greased with solid shortening or sprayed with non-sticking spray.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt the butter or margarine in a small saucepan or frying pan. Pouring into medium sized bowl. Stir in the lemon juice, garlic powder, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper until well blended. Pour over the chicken. Cover the pan with aluminum foil or a baking pan lid. Bake for 1 hour. While the chicken is cooking, frequently spoon sauce from the bottom of the pan over the chicken.
