 Chicken with Lemon Pepper


Recipes for chicken breasts have a terrible reputation for being bland. Of course, the chicken will be awful if you simply toss it in a skillet with salt and pepper and bake it for eternity. 

Although it seems apparent, a lot of individuals who strive to "eat healthily" do this. On the other hand, eating healthily can be really simple and delightful when you add layers of vibrant, fresh flavors (like lemon pepper!).

For the most delicious, juicy results, this dish is finished in the oven after beginning on the stovetop for a flawless golden sear. 

Everything can be done on the stovetop if you don't want to use your oven. The sauce should be flawlessly smooth after about 3 minutes of cooking on medium heat after adding the sauce's components.
