Bake at 250 degrees F. for 1 hr and 45 min;then at 400 degrees F. for 15
min.

l. Melt butter in a large shallow roasting pan that is large enough to hold
all the chicken in a single layer. Spoon out and reserve 2 tbsp. of the
melted butter. Stir lemon juice into butter remaining in roasting pan.

2. Saute mushrooms in reserved butter in a large skillet, about 3 min. or
until lightly browned.

3. Arrange chicken in a single layer in pan. Turn over in the butter
mixture so all sides are evenly coated. Spoon mushrooms over chicken;then
sprinkle with paprika and pepper. Cover pan with foil. Note:for extra
zing,sprinkle some grated lemon rind over also.

Note:Chicken may be prepared up to this point as much as a day ahead of
time. Refrig. until ready to bake.

4. Bake in a very slow oven (250) for 1 hr,45 min. Uncover, raise temp. to
hot(400) and bake about 15 min. longer or until chicken is golden brown.

5. Remove chicken from oven to large heated platter. Pour pan
drippings(gravy may be thickened, if you like)into a sauceboat, to pass
with chicken. Serve with brown rice, if you wish.
