This is taken from a Cooking Light recipe with a few minor changes. I love it because it is easy to prepare, takes few ingredients, looks lovely, and is truly delicious.

4 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breast halves
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
