Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Combine pepper and 2 tsp EACH of the herbs in a ziploc bag. (The original recipe called for 1 cup of flour and 1 tsp salt in addition to this stuff, but I have left them out to accomodate special diets and it worked well without them.).

2. 2

   Add the chicken, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat well.

3. 3

   Place chicken in large roasting pan, skin side up.

4. 4

   Combine margarine, wine, lemon juice and the remaining 2 tsp of each herb in a small saucepan. Heat on a medium flame, stirring, until well combined.

5. 5

   Pour over chicken, cover with foil.

6. 6

   Bake at 375F for one hour covered; then remove cover, sprinkle with paprika and bake another 30 minutes or so, until chicken is done and lightly browned.
