Greek Lemon Chicken With Angel Hair Pasta image

A delicious one dish casserole. It's special enough for special events like bridal showers or graduation. It's an amazing dish! A local caterer uses this recipe and I found out it was in Creme de Colorado Cookbook. but I have never found it online. I've adjusted it slightly from their version to make it even better. After being asked for this recipe many time, I decided to post it.
