Family Favorite Lemon Chicken Spaghetti

This is one of my 6 year old's favorite meals. he has requested that i make it more often. if you like the flavor of lemon, you will probably like this dish. i use whole wheat thin spaghetti to make it even more healthy. *update* 2-10-10. i made this last night using shrimp instead of the chicken. it was pretty good as well. instead of baking for 30 minutes, i boiled the shrimp and marinade in a pot for 5 minutes (until shrimp turned pink). i also added a little paprika to the marinade.

Steps

Cut up chicken into bite sized pieces.
Squeeze lemon juice into a small bowl.
Add the remainder of the ingredients and stir.
Place cut up chicken into a gallon size bag.
Pour the lemon juice mixture over the chicken.
Marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray a large baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour entire contents of bag into the dish.
Bake for 30 minutes.
Bring some water to a boil and cook spaghetti to your liking , then drain.
Pour the chicken and the juices together with the spaghetti and stir.
It tastes better if the juices soak into the spaghetti for a few minutes.
