Lemon Dijon Chicken
Once the weather gets warmer in New York, I grill outside constantly. This roasted chicken is a delicious and easy weeknight meal and can be paired with my roasted and marinated zucchini for a healthy meal. The squeeze of lemon at the end really gives it that bite that is just so good!
