Lemon Pepper Chicken Recipe


Hello! 

I love cooking with lemon juice and zest so here is a recipe which consists of a lemon pepper sauce for chicken breast. I also tried this recipe of the sauce for spaghetti and it was divine!
This is a recipe which is loaded with good zesty flavors for those who love their citrus like me. The sour taste of the zest combines with salt and pepper gives a fresh tangy taste.

You will need lemon pepper seasoning which is the main ingredient but you can also make the seasoning yourself; I will be posting a method for it later. So let's start with the ingredients!

Ingredients

Olive oil 
One chicken breast cut in strips
2 large tomatoes cut in chunks 
Handful of finely chopped coriander
Half cup of Lemon Pepper Seasoning
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Boiled water 
Fresh chili (optional)

Lemon Pepper Seasoning 

Method

1. In a bowl put the chunks of tomatoes and a pinch of salt in order to release more juices from the tomatoes. 

2.  In a separate bowl, combine the coriander, lemon pepper seasoning, freshly ground pepper, some olive oil and mix together. You can also add some fresh chili or chili powder if you fancy. 

3. After mixing well, transfer the chicken strips into the seasoning bowl to combine the mixture with the meat. 

4. Prepare the frying pan with some olive oil and cook the tomatoes on medium heat by adding some boiled water (about 2 tablespoons).

5. When the tomatoes are starting to soften and releasing the juices, add the chicken mixed with the seasoning mixture and cook on medium heat. Add some boiled to get work in the sauce. 

6. Cover the pan and let cook on low heat with occasional stirring.

7. Uncover the pan stir a little more and you will have tender chicken breast in a nice lemony, peppery sauce. Turn off the heat and serve. 


And like Gennaro Contaldo says...''Why am I cooking SO GOOD?!!''  :)
