We usually buy the marinated lemon pepper chicken at Shaw's. Dang, tonight they were all out! Time to improvise- and how easy it was.
It tasted so fresh with a zing of lemon!

Soak 4 skewers in water while prepping.
Prepare half a box of rice pilaf.
Cut up the veggies into nice sizes for skewering.

How simple is this? Zest, then juice 1 lemon. Add an equal amount of olive oil. Whisk.

Toss veggies in a covered bowl with a dash of olive oil (and some of the lemony oil), salt & pepper. Skewer on two sticks. Cook in a preheated (on broil) iron grill pan for 8 minutes (turn 1/2 way through). While they cook, get the chicken ready.

For two people, cut up 1 medium size chicken breast (9 pieces). Dredge in lemon oil mix, skewer, then have helper salt & pepper both sides.


Cook in broiler pan 3 minutes, use a metal spatula to carefully loosen from the pan and flip, cook another 3 minutes (6 minutes total).


A tester favorite: rice pilaf.
