2 whole chickens (2 lb. each)
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. poultry seasoning
2 tsp. dried basil leaves
2 tsp. dried rosemary leaves
2 lemons, halved
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash chickens well; dry on paper towels. Cut in half along breastbones; remove wing tips and backs.
2. In large, shallow baking pan, arrange chicken halves, skin side down, in single layer. Mix salt and rest of seasonings; sprinkle half over chicken. Bake, covered (with foil if pan does not have cover) for 30 minutes.
3. Remove cover. Turn chicken skin side up; sprinkle with rest of seasonings. Bake, uncovered, 20 to 30 minutes longer or until golden brown and tender.
4. Serve each chicken half with lemon to squeeze over top. Makes 4 servings; 350 calories each.
Note: If desired, run chickens under broiler 5 minutes for better browning.

CHICKEN PICCATA
6 boneless chicken breast halves
1 c. seasoned bread crumbs (I like Progresso)
1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
1 egg
1 1/2 c. milk
Vegetable oil
2 tbsp. flour
1/2 c. lemon juice

Remove skin from chicken breasts. Place each piece of chicken between 2 sheets of wax paper; flatten to 1/4 inch thickness, using a meat mallet. Combine bread crumbs, flour, salt, and pepper on a plate. On another plate, mix egg and milk with a whisk. Dredge chicken in bread crumb mixture, then in egg and milk and back in bread crumbs. Heat 1 inch oil in a large skillet. Add oil as needed. Add chicken and brown 3-4 minutes on each side. Drain browned chicken on paper towels. Place chicken in 13 x 9 inch baking dish. Reserve drippings in skillet. Add 2 tablespoons flour and cook 1 minute until thick and bubbly. Add water and cook until smooth. Stir in lemon juice. Pour sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Yield: 6 servings. (Can substitute veal for chicken.)

if you already have a chicken piccata recipe, then you can simply place on a baking sheet and bake at 375-400 until golden and no juices flowing. then treat it the same as you would if you fried it. same ingredients just a difference in method. you can also try cooks.com for variations on the traditional recipe.
Hope this helps!
