    STORY BEHIND THE DISH
    Stonefire Grill half lemon garlic chicken lunch special please! At least one Thursday a month this delicious meal is a must. It also helps that Stonefire Grill is so close to my house I can smell it, literally, when I open the door. I wanted to recreate this dish but since I know how time consuming a fill roasted chicken can be, I went the easy route & used a boneless skinless chicken breast instead.  


    MODIFICATIONS 
    You can use this same recipe roasting a whole chicken or legs if you prefer dark meat. I love roasted garlic but you do not have to use an entire bulb especially if you pair up this dish with delicious Garlic Roasted Mashed Potatoes.

    5. Very good and quite similar to the restaurant. My chicken breasts were very moist. I pounded them to make them an even thickness and cooked for 30 min. I also used lime with the lemon (because I needed to use them) and didn't even notice the difference!Definitely will make these again.
