Lemon Chicken

Here is the other recipe from dinner with the Banks...soooo yummy served with the lemon rice!

1/3 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
1 Tbsp. dijon mustard
2 cloves chopped garlic
1/2 - 1 red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 chicken breasts

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and let marinate for at least 20 minutes (it is best if you let it marinate for 6 hours or more, though). Cook in a large frying pan for 15-20 minutes until chicken is cooked through.

I think you could do this recipe in the crock pot or on the grill as well. If you grill it though, make sure you don't chop your red peppers, just slice them long and toss them on the grill as well. We like the stovetop method because the marinade/sauce is delicious poured over the lemon rice - after being cooked, of course.
