Greek-Style Lemon-Garlic Chicken
“I love celebrating my Greek heritage with this super simple and scrumptious Sunday dinner idea. Prep time is a breeze and the ingredient list is relatively short for such a flavourful one-dish meal. Each time I make this I’m transported back to my ya-ya, who gave me the special honour of squeezing the lemons!” —Lisa Renshaw, Kansas City, Missouri
