excllent! Just right for our taste! BUT One fresh breast was more then enough for the 2 of us! I remembered that when in the states, Kate used frozen breasts, and they were tiny in comparision. I beat the breast, and it was about the size of my electric frypan!!!! so I figured that would do did the sauce as written, and it was wonderful! SERVED WITH BROCOLI, which went very well with the sauce. made for aussie swap, oct 09

    This is so quick to make and yet so delicious! The chicken's tender, the lemon/butter was just right..simply perfect! It was like having schnitzel with lemon only with a little bit of sauce in it. I even squeezed the lemon garnish on it. Mmm, magnifico~! Thanks!
