I’ve fixed this dish many times for company, and I’ve never had anyone fail to ask for the recipe. The leftovers—if there are any—are very good heated up in the microwave.

the recipe worked fine, but wasn't as flavorful as I had hoped.

Excellent recipe-very flavorful-I didn't drizzle the butter on and it was sooo good-also used boneless breasts-yum!!!

My family loved this chicken. The coating was very flavorful and the chicken is moist. Next time I think we will remove the skin so that none of the tasty coating is wasted. But I recommend using the bone in chicken because it doesn't dry out at all.

The french-fried onions are great in the breading. I have tried several baked chicken recipes and this one is always my go to. Family/friends have requested the recipe.

This was delicious - healthier than frying but losing none of the flavor. I cooked the chicken on my pizza stone, which I've found helps it stay moist.

Quick, easy and very tasty. I will make it again, but next time I will use boneless, skinless pieces of chicken as those would be more eater-friendly. I also suggest that the breading needs to be packed on, rather than just rolled. That way more of the flavor will be enjoyed. Otherwise, there is a lot of unused breading left over and it can't be saved for a later use since it has been contaminated by the chicken.

I'm always looking for an alternative to standing at a stove and frying chicken, this recipe is definitely a winner! I did use buttermilk instead of milk, just 'cause I love using buttermilk whenever possible.
