     1/4  cup           fresh lemon juice
       1  tablespoon    coarsely ground black pepper
                        Salt
     1/2  cup           extra-virgin olive oil
       3  whole         boneless skinless chicken breasts
                        For gremolata:
       1  tablespoon    fresh thyme leaves
       2  large         garlic cloves, -- minced
       1  teaspoon      freshly grated lemon zest
                        Garnish:
                        Lemon slices
                        Thyme sprigs


In a bowl whisk together lemon juice, pepper and salt to taste and add oil
in a stream, whisking until marinade is emulsified. With a rolling pin or
smooth side of a meat pounder flatten chicken 1/4-inch thick between sheets
of plastic wrap. In a large resealable plastic bag marinate chicken in
marinade, chilled, 30 minutes.

Prepare grill. Make gremolata: In a small bowl stir together gremolata
ingredients. Grill chicken on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing
coals until just cooked through, about 2 minutes on each side.

Serve chicken sprinkled with gremolata and garnished with lemon and thyme.
