Number Of Ingredients 9

3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 lemon, quartered
2 teaspoons garlic powder, divided
1 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
1 (8 ounce) package rotelle pasta
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place chicken in a lightly greased baking dish.
