Very good recipe. One step you might try is stabbing the chicken repeatedly with a fork. During baking, the holes in the chicken allow more flavor to seep into the chicken. You also might try baking in a medium bread loaf pan. This allows the juices to coat the chicken throughout the baking process. Half way through baking, turn the chicken over. This recipe is easily doubled, but be warned, it takes longer to cook in a loaf pan!
