Baked Lemon Chicken

Spring is in full bloom around here.  Nothing says Spring to me better than bright, sunny, yellow lemons.  Therefor, I was not surprised that I ended up with about three pounds of lemons from my last grocery shopping trip. Tonight I made the first of many recipes using these lemons.
