Made this for PAC 2008. This chicken really is "unbelievable" I can't believe I'm the first one to review it!! We really enjoyed this dish. My DH had 2 helpings and then stood over the pan eating the left overs!!! I used 6 small chicken breasts, and there was plenty of sauce to cover them. I only had lemon juice and I think I used about 1/4 of a cup, next time I will use a little more because we love lemon. Great, easy, and tasty recipe. Thanks Melanie :) :)

This is the first time submitting a review on a recipe. I must say this dish is fantastic. I did saute chopped shallots after removing the cooked chicken from the pan and before adding the lemon juice and chicken broth. Delicious! Added fresh basil to the sauce at the end before serving. Thanks for the recipe!!
