Directions
1 Cover four toothpicks in water and soak for at least an hour.
2 In an 11 x 7 inch casserole dish, combine lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper.
3 Pound chicken to a 3/8 inch thickness, and place the chicken in lemon mixture, turning to coat.
4 Cover the chicken and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
5 Prepare gas or charcoal grill for cooking.
6 In a small bowl, combine the parsley, cheese, chives, lemon peel and garlic.
7 Discard the marinade and spread 1/4 of the parsley mixture over each chicken breast, to within 1 inch of the edges.
8 Starting at the narrow end, roll the chicken to enclose the filling, and secure with the soaked toothpicks.
9 Over medium hot coals, grill the chicken, covered, for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
10 Transfer the chicken to indirect or low heat. Grill the chicken covered, for about 5 minutes until the chicken is no longer pink in the center.
11 Remove toothpicks and slice the chicken breasts into 3 or 4 pieces each.
