Baked lemon pepper chicken is a fast and easy meal that is delicious as the main course or atop a salad to add protein.

One of my children made this recipe for a family party recently.

It was delicious and easy to make, so I t،ught I would share it as an example of a healthy main course that is very straightforward and fast to pull together.

These chicken cutlets are an excellent topper for a salad too.

Note that where you source the chicken ،s is very important to ensure this dish is as nutrient-dense as possible!

I would recommend finding a pastured poultry farmer in your area where you can buy chicken outside of the Industrialized Food System with its many abuses even if the meat is “،ically certified”.

Serving Suggestion

I recommend serving these lemon pepper cutlets with roasted vegetables and fermented sweet ،ato.

The combination of flavors is delicious!
