I made this for my family last night and we loved it! Seemed a bit salty so next time I will use a little less garlic salt. I also flattened the chicken breasts so that they would cook more evenly and quicker. I cooked the chicken in a grill pan for about 6-8 minutes per side.

Juicy, Easy and still healthier than my regular lemon chicken recipe! Even my husband asked to have it again!
