Cooking Light's Citrus Chicken Cutlets

This is a fast, easy, and healthy recipe that makes a very moist and flavourful chicken. if you double the marinade you can pour it over some rice and have a complete (and delicious) dinner. also, if you have the time, let the chicken marinate for longer- it will be even juicier. the marinade would also work well with a mild fish. recipe is from cooking light magazine (october 2006).
