Introduction

This will be the juciest, moist, chicken you have ever had. I first ate this when I moved to the south and a friend of my husband's made it. I changed it to make it less fattening. I don't really know if this is considered a nutritional meal but it is very good and if you eat the white meat it will be slightly healthier. You can substitute the beer for a can of diet pepsi.
