Citrus Herb Chicken with Swiss Chard

I am a meal planner and every week I check the weather before I plan my meals especially if we are planning to grill outdoors. That is exactly what I did with this Citrus Herb Chicken, we had planned to grill out, and the weather went crazy, it was pouring rain. Sometimes that is how we get a new recipe, by an unplanned event. This recipe became a "Rainy Day" recipe that we will enjoy rain or shine in the future.
