I made this on 6/13/08 for our dinner. And the only thing that I did different was to use cream of chicken instead of the mushroom.( I just don't care for it ) The taste of the chicken was very good. And I do believe it was the buttery type of crackers that made this recipe different from other fried chicken recipes. This will be made again. Thanks for posting and "Keep Smiling :)"
