With only 6 ingredients – you are going to love it! If you have time marinate the chicken to let the lemon, garlic and Rosemary flavours soak into the breast. You can prep the day before or in the morning before you head out.

We like to use Mt Barker Chicken.

If you make extra, shred the chicken and add it to a salad for lunch the next day.
