Grilled Lemon Garlic Chicken

5.0(5)

Found this recipe way back in the Taste of Home's Quick Cooking magazine and tweaked it for my family's taste. I have pounded the chicken breasts before I marinated them and fixed them on the Foreman Grill. It takes little time to prepare marinade but it needs to marinate for 6-8 hours then cook for 1 hour or until the chicken juice is clear.
