Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl combine all ingredients except the chicken. Place chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet until they are a uniform thickness. This ensures that they will cook evenly. Place chicken in a glass dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken. Turn the chicken to coat. Marinate for 2 hours. After two hours, remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the remaining marinade. Cook the chicken in a skillet 3-4 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Serve with lemon wedges.
