Chip Moody Chicken image

Chip Moody was a beloved News Anchor in Dallas/Ft. Worth and in Houston. He was also a very good friend and neighbor of my best friend's father. When my best friend and I were just venturing out on our own we cooked an elaborate dinner for her father and some guests. This was one of my mother's recipe's that we made for Chip Moody, he absolutely loved it. He has since passed away but I will never forget the pride we felt when he went on and on about the fabulous chicken and asked for the recipe. It is a great company worthy dish.
