Lemon Peppered Chicken

 

This tasty recipe is ultra low in calories and tastes wonderful. And - it's ultra easy to make. Here we go!

Ingredients for this low calorie, low fat recipe are:

 

2 small chicken breasts with skin and visible fat removed

1 Tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Lemon Pepper (found in the spice isle at your local market)

 

I like to pound my breasts (chicken breasts that is) flat as they cook faster and tend to be more tender. However - this is totally optional.

Next, place the oil in a non stick pan on the stove top and allow oil to heat - but not to a sizzling stage or you risk painful splatters. Add chicken breasts and allow to brown on one side. As that browns, go ahead and sprinkle on a bit of lemon pepper.

Next, turn the chicken, sprinkle on more lemon pepper and cook until chicken is thoroughly done. I tend to turn my chicken over a few times just to ensure that it's totally done.

Serve on a bed of wild rice, white rice, brown rice, or egg noodles.
