Lemon Pepper Chicken Breast Recipes

EASY LEMON PEPPER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Use a sharp knife to carefully fillet the chicken breasts into two thinner peices (or use thin-cut chicken breasts).
• Combine the flour and lemon pepper seasoning in a bowl. Sprinkle the mixture over both sides of the chicken breast pieces and then rub it in until the chicken is fully coated.
• Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium. When the skillet and oil are very hot, add the chicken and cook on each side until golden brown (about 5 minutes per side). Remove the cooked chicken to a clean plate and cover to keep warm.
• Add the butter and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about one minute.
• Add the chicken broth to the skillet and whisk to dissolve all the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Add the lemon juice and allow the sauce to simmer in the skillet for 3-5 minutes, or until it has reduced slightly. Taste the sauce and add salt if needed (I did not add any).
• Finally, return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over top. Allow the chicken to heat through. Season with a little freshly cracked pepper and fresh chopped parsley (optional), then serve.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a small skillet. Pepper the skillet with 1/2 tablespoon of the pepper, then lay the chicken breast onto the pepper. Squeeze fresh lemon juice onto the chicken, then season with the remaining pepper.
• Saute chicken breast for about 5 to 7 minutes, then turn to the other side, squeeze lemon juice onto the other side and saute for another 5 to 7 minutes (or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear).

• Whisk chicken broth and flour together and pour over the vegetables in the skillet. Bring to a boil; simmer until thick, about 5 minutes. Add sour cream and mix well. Return chicken breasts to the skillet. Heat until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• When the chicken breasts are thawed, mix the Frank's hot sauce and lemon pepper marinade together.
• Marinate chicken breasts for about an hour in the refrigerator.
• While marinating, slice the yellow, green and red peppers into thin slivers and set to the side in the skillet.
• Place the chicken breasts on the grill on the top rack; grill slowly so chicken breasts stay nice and juicy.
• When chicken is almost completely cooked, remove from grill and place in the skillet on top of the peppers.
• Baste the chicken with the remaining sauce mixture that was not used and cook until chicken is completely cooked and peppers and tender!
