Chicken with Lemon-Dill Sauce

Chicken Grilled & Broiled
Prep time:
15 minutes
Cooking time:
25 minutes

For about half the cost of a bunch of fresh dill, you can purchase dill seeds. One dill plant will provide plenty of this pretty, lacy herb in warm weather and enough to dry until next year.

Ingredients

Serves 4 

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (4 ounces each)
