I don't remember where I found this but,I've had this recipe saved forever & finally tried it last night. It was super good. Even my husband, who is leary of some things that sound "different" loved it and told me to keep that recipe :)It's very moist, and just enough lemon, very very easy to prepare. And I am going to use the leftover chicken in a cold pasta salad. Maybe I'll be posting a new rcipe from that :)
