2 medium lemons
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary (or ½ teaspoon dried rosemary leaves)
¼ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
4 small skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 1 lb)
Grate enough peel from 1 lemon to equal 2 teaspoons.
Cut lemon in half and set aside.
Thinly slice half of second lemon, reserving slices for garnish.
Squeeze lemon juice from remaining 3 lemon halves into small bowl.
Stir in lemon peel, rosemary, pepper, and garlic.
Preheat heavy skillet-grill or 12" skillet or use a non-stick pan. Heat skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
Meanwhile, toss chicken breast halves with lemon juice mixture.
Place chicken breast halves in hot skillet; cook 5 minutes, brushing with remaining lemon-juice mixture.
Turn chicken over and cook 5 minutes longer until juices run clear when thickest part of chicken breast is pierced with a knife.
