Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place yogurt in a small bowl and stir until creamy smooth. Add lemon and stir together. (Note: If you do not stir the yogurt first, the lemon juice will make the yogurt curdle.) In a separate shallow dish or bowl combine the bread crumbs, garlic powder and salt to taste; mix together.
- In a 9x13 inch baking dish place 1 scant pat of butter or margarine for each chicken breast. Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry. Dip each breast in the lemon/yogurt mixture, then in the bread crumb mixture (coating completely but not heavily).
- Place coated chicken in the baking dish and top each breast with a full pat of butter or margarine. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

JULIE'S BAKED CHICKEN KORMA & RICE
This is the recipe I came up with to make chicken korma to take to a potluck, based on the excellent korma recipe my husband uses. I wanted to make it in a casserole form that would be easy to just mix together and bake then take in the same pan to the potluck. The folks at the gathering loved it, so I think it came out pretty darn well. :)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a large saucepan sauté the chopped onion and sliced mushrooms (if using) in butter and olive oil until onions are opaque.
- Add spices and the remaining sauce ingredients except for one of the cans of broth (or half of your homemade); simmer for 5 minutes.
- Turn off heat and add cubed chicken; stir.
- Put uncooked rice in the bottom a large lightly-oiled lasagne pan and carefully pour the chicken/sauce mixture over (the pan will be pretty darn full).
- (You can also just mix the rice into the sauce and pour into the pan, but if you do so make sure you evenly distribute the rice on the bottom of the pan.) Bake in 375 degree oven for 30 minutes, add the remaining can of chicken broth into the pan and stir well, then bake for an additional 30 minutes until rice is cooked through.
- Makes about 10-12 potluck servings.

Tips:
- Chicken breasts should be cold before marinating, to help the marinade penetrate better.
- Use a glass or ceramic bowl for marinating, as metal bowls can react with the acid in the marinade.
- If you want to marinate the chicken for longer, you can do so in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- Make sure to preheat the oven to the correct temperature before baking the chicken.
- If you are using a convection oven, reduce the cooking temperature by 25 degrees Fahrenheit.
- To prevent the chicken from drying out, baste it with the marinade or pan juices every 15 minutes.
- Bake the chicken until it is cooked through, which you can check by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The internal temperature should read 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving, to allow the juices to redistribute.
Conclusion:
Julie's Yogurt Baked Chicken is a delicious, easy, and healthy weeknight meal. The combination of yogurt, lemon, garlic, and herbs creates a flavorful marinade that helps keep the chicken moist and tender. Baking the chicken in the oven results in a crispy skin and juicy interior. Serve this dish with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
