This was a combination of two recipes that were side by side in a community cookbook I picked up somewhere. I’ve been playing more with lemon pepper these days somehow and really like how it perks up a dish. My lemon tree is finally delivering fresh lemons again and I enjoyed its bounty in every course yesterday, finishing the meal with some great lemon bread.
