Grilled Lemon Chicken with Lemon Mint Sauce

I just love the Lemon flavor, it is always so fresh and just enhances the flavor of any dish. I also love the Lemon and Mint combination, it is a great flavor. We have several area's in our gardens where the mint is growing, it always smells wonderful.  The Grilled Lemon Chicken with Lemon Mint Sauce is a recipe that I developed after bringing a bunch of mint in the kitchen from the garden.  "Honey Bunny" wants to know when we can make it again, we really enjoyed it and sure hope you do too.
