Tuscan Lemon Pepper Chicken Breast (Served Cold) image

I use this chicken for sandwiches and salads mostly and have received quite a few compliments on it. I mostly just wing this recipe so the spice measurements are an estimation, I usually just do everything to taste. Do everything on low heat so the chicken remains juicy.
