How did you know I put out chicken breasts for dinner tonight? I wasn't sure what to do with them, might just give this a try. I think I have everything but the lemon juice. I think it'll be yummy without it. THanks!

Yum. I've never done this with chicken. What a great idea! Chicken is on the menu for this week and I'll have to give this a shot. I also have turkey cutlets on the menu. I bet it would work with those too. Thanks! - Stephanie
