Grilled Lemon Chicken with Garlic Bread

Grilled Lemon Chicken with Garlic Bread

This light dinner is just the thing for an end-of-the summer evening. In minutes, thin cutlets get lemony taste from a quick marinade and smokiness from the hot grill. To complete the meal, serve with our Corn and Radish Salad.
