Chicken Grilled & Broiled
Prep time:
10 minutesCooking time:
25 minutes“If the price of fresh lemons puts a sour note in your weekly budget, you can leave the lemon slices out of this recipe. Instead sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon dried lemon peel over the sauce before the final broiling.”

- 1 lemon, sliced

Cut a small slice from the side of the lemon so that it will sit flat on the countertop while you slice.
