Thank you for your response, Shannon. I have saved many recipes and then can't remember where I got them, so I certainly understand. <Smile>. If you do try it, definitely increase the flour. Also, with chicken, you usually dip it into the liquid first, then dredge it in the flour coating. The coating will stick to the chicken better. There may be a good reason why they did it differently with this recipe, so try it their way first.
