TUSCAN LEMON PEPPER CHICKEN BREAST (SERVED COLD)

Tuscan Lemon Pepper Chicken Breast (Served Cold) image

I use this chicken for sandwiches and salads mostly and have received quite a few compliments on it. I mostly just wing this recipe so the spice measurements are an estimation, I usually just do everything to taste. Do everything on low heat so the chicken remains juicy.

For a crispy coating, make sure to coat the chicken breasts evenly in the flour mixture.
If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin to pound the chicken breasts thin.
Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken breasts. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
Cook the chicken breasts until they are golden brown and cooked through. This will ensure that they are juicy and flavorful.
Serve the lemon pepper chicken breasts immediately with your favorite sides.
