How To Make This Chicken:

Take your chicken and lay it in plastic wrap or plastic bag. With meat hammer lightly pound until chicken is thinned out.

Now in a large mixing bowl, place the chicken in and sprinkle the pepper and lemon juice over the chicken. Use a fork to turn the pieces over until they are fully coated.

Let sit for about 15 minutes.

Now place chicken on a heated indoor grill (I use a George Foreman Grill).

Let cook for about 8 – 10 minutes. The time can differ depending on your grill. You could also do this on an outdoor grill if it is nice out.

How To Get The Most Juice From A Lemon:

To get the most juice from a lemon there are a few things you can do. When working with a room temperature lemon, roll it on the counter a few times.

Then squeeze in your hand. Kind of like a stress ball. This helps to free up all the juice so that it is easy to squeeze.

Then cut the top of one end off and squeeze it into the bowl. I like to squeeze mine over a strainer to catch the seeds.

Another option you can try is to pop the lemon in the microwave for 15-second intervals until the lemon is warm. Then roll on the counter a few times before cutting and squeezing.
