BEST LEMON CHICKEN
I found this on the back of a bag of frozen chicken breasts. There were five things I liked about this recipe; it was easy, it is weight watchers core friendly, it smelled great cooking, it was tasty, and I didn't have to remember to thaw the meat. I served this with some brown rice and some steamed corn. The whole family enjoyed it. I included the marinade time in with the prep time. And my chicken was pretty thick so I ended up flipping my chicken 2 more times and broiling an additional 3 minutes each flip. The cook time I noted is per package directions.
