Comments:
My changes: I buy a whole chicken and cut it up, reserving the backbone and wings for another use, such as broth or soup. I use a lot more corn flakes and adjust the parsley accordingly. I also use the whole little container of yogurt and adjust the seasonings accordingly. I still use just one clove of garlic, but I eyeball the Worchestershire sauce- I end up throwing away some of the yogurt mixture, but it’s easier to work with if you have more. Instead of sprinkling the corn flakes on top, I put them in a low-sided bowl and press the chicken into the corn flakes until well coated.
