Easy Lemon Pepper Chicken

While I love to eat out at fine restaurants, this recession has taught me a thing or two about eating in. I have found that cooking at home and limiting the number of times we eat out during the week can actually save us major moolah, besides all the other health benefits etc.

Here's one of my standard recipes when I'm in a time crunch and must put food on the table:

8 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast halves (fresh or frozen)
1 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
1 Teaspoon Lemon Pepper Seasoning
Lemon Slices (Optional)
Fresh Cilantro or Parsley (Garnish - Optional)

Combine lemon pepper seasoning, extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice. Brush over chicken. Heat non-stick skillet and cook chicken on both sides until done. Garnish with lemon slices and cilantro/parsley.

Serve with steamed broccoli and corn.
