Hey guys welcome to Flat Top King we just busted out a fantastic juicy lemon pepper chicken we just created a sauce as well if you guys want to see how we just did it here we go all right to get started let’s look at what we’re working with we have some

Lemon just kidding we have some chicken um I’ve already spliced two of them in half I’ll show you how to do one we made this video a few days back and even though we thought it was okay like it was good I think I can do better so

You’re going to see some overlays of how the video went I can talk about that a little bit I messed up on the video and I don’t want to be that the reason why I’m shooting again I just think we can do better we can do better Technique we

Can do better flavor and that’s what we’re going to do so that whole movie that whole video will go and upload to members only they get a lot of those videos where I screw up two things that really happened one I really think there’s a huge difference in your lemon

Pepper this is no knock to Engles or Laura Lynn but sure shid so has one I always have say try that again what’ I say I don’t even know shot Sid oh I always have their spices um in my pantry whatever it is from gunpowder to this to

Lime uh but I bought this just to try it out we used the video with it and there there is a big difference it’s it’s no knock to them but the citric acid maybe in this is just extremely extremely intense and in this it seems like a

Little bit more uh real a little bit more traditional so we’re going to try out with that today and see if we can see a big difference the second thing that happened was with all my uh prep work going going on and not really paying attention to how the gdle got I’m

Going to show you a real quick clip that I got my Skillet too hot and my garlic got a little bit darker than what I’d want didn’t ruin the dish but it can happen to everybody with all that being said let’s move on to what we’re doing

Today we got our chicken we have our lemon pepper seasoning we have some uh chicken stock some parsley some butter some garlic that’s just kind of like rough chop and some lemons and we’re going to dredge it in flour extremely easy dish I would like to say that uh

We’re not going to have anything with it today the wife mentioned angel hair pasta I thought a good cheese tortillini cuz maybe that cheese with the cream and the proteins and the cheese can offset the tartness from the lemon whatever you want to do you can also chill it down

And do like a cold pasta with it but fantastic sauce all right so let me show you this chicken cuz I need it cleaned up and sanitized so chicken breast we preach it all the time if it goes on The Griddle it needs to be even thickness

Thank wow that’s what happens when you film it a couple days in a row all right so just try your best and the reason why we do this is because the gdle cooking happens so fast you don’t want to like overcook your chicken on one side and your other side

To be undercooked so just do the best you can you should have something like that all right I am going to go ahead and add about I don’t know about tablespoon and a half of butter to my Skillet now while it’s warming up cause yeah you see how hot

That is already I waited yesterday and I tablespoon of butter for three chicken breasts I’m looking about 2 tablespoons of lemon pepper seasoning while it’s warming up let’s go ahead and add the garlic start to get that tender now I’m going to keep an eye on

It you just want that garlic to get soft you need to pull the skillet off the heat you can all right maybe a I don’t know half a cup of flour something like that you’re not looking to double dredge it’s going to be a single dredge

Today so just a little bit to coat the chicken it’s going to help that sauce thicken we’re just going to season both sides of the chicken I would Air at this point to go lighter than heavier just because if you’re not used to your uh lemon pepper it could really change your flavor

Profile see how our Garlic’s nice and tender add a cup of water teaspoon of chicken Bon you can substitute chicken stock I just think the Bon gives a little bit more flavor the ends of the uh lemon I’m going to put in there for flavor as well

We’re going to get that sauce going and reducing and then right here really quickly we’re just going to dredge the flour if you’re not looking for a heavy coating it should be thin all right just got some vegetable oil my gr runs downhill that’s perfect for me

Because if you notice my grease traps not in the back like a lot of griddles it’s in the front so that’s allowing the the oil to pull and we’re about to use that oil for a shallow fry that oil is pulling so just pull it back and let gravity take

Hol I picked some freshly parsley off the stems I’m just do a rough Chop on it look that that beautiful color that’s the good thing about being have a shallow fry adding that flour for that crust bringing that oil back and let it to do its thing that a thingy Beauty all

Right really quick before this happens cuz it’s going to happen pretty quick the one thing I can tell you here is the same thing we preached on the other video you cannot overcook it you cannot overcook your chicken at this point if you pull it at 160 165 it’s already

Overcooked because we need to finish it in the sauce so just remember that IID probably aim for about 145 all right right before we pull that chicken I’m going to add a knob of butter looking about a tablespoon man look at that beautiful chicken keep reducing that sauce

Down all right right at the very end we’re going to throw some lemon slices down you’ll be amazed how quick they cook and dissolve so don’t do it too early still using the residual heat from The Griddle and then I’m using about half of a lemon and then right at the end some

Fresh parsley and there you go some juicy Style lemon pepper chicken now you see the sauce that we’re talking about perfect for pasta perfect for a little rice maybe a little potatoes see that sauce that we’re working with that’s that chicken stock the butter the flour from the chicken the garlic and the

Lemon well there you go that’s about as pretty as it gets right there that sauce is perfect see what we get here I’m trying to see it won’t focus M this is better this way better I think they key is to taste your seasoning cuz the seasoning makes all the difference not

All lemon pepper seasonings are created equal yeah and I think season of chicken versus season of flour per recommendations changes as well cuz I don’t think there’s no way in the world we use the same amount of seasoning on this chicken than we did when we seasoned the

Flour this is 10 times better this is this is why this is why it’s worth to re-shoot M that’s good yeah the crust set better on the chicken yeah good job babe yeah that’s for that that’s goodn that’s good winner winner lemon pepper chicken dinner there you go if you guys are

  1. I 100 pct. agree with you on the seasoning your protein, not your flour! This looks amazing and I appreciate the Sure Shot Sid's Lemon Pepper tip. I'm making this as soon as it comes in. Thanks guys, as always – great work!

  2. Fantastic job Neal! Definitely the way to make chicken on the griddle. Awesome cook! Cheers bro 🍻

  3. I’ve made lemon pepper chicken myself recently. But, I put it in the crockpot and didn’t use starch. But, yours was impressive.

  4. Very impressive. I'm going to be trying this one out tonight. Learned a great deal. Thanks to Neil and Amy, I've just upped my game.

  5. As there is no pepper in this it is more like chicken french ! If you would like to look up chicken french rochester ny style and you will see what I mean !! Great recipe Neal !!

  6. Mmmmmmm, That chicken looked absolutely delicious. I love Lemon Pepper Chicken. You two are great, keep those videos and recipes coming. Take care and stay safe in East TN.

  7. I’m not a chicken breast lover, so would you please do a video using fish instead? Let me know when you do the video. I don’t want to miss it.

  8. That sure looked great Neil and Amy liked it too. Thanks for sharing your recipe with us. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

  9. My first boyfriend would make lemon pepper chicken for me and his family, back in the mid 80's. It was absolutely delicious! I'd actually forgotten about it. However, he didn't make that sauce. I think that would take it to a whole new level! I'm dreaming of that with some buttery mashed potatoes. I really want to try it with that sauce, that looked super delicious!

  10. Thanks for sharing the process(es) both good and not so good – That is one thing I have to say Neal – you are Real and your ideas are just outstanding – Thanks again Pal

  11. Truth in griddiln is what sets you apart. No need for any apology. Totally agree on cutting the breasts in half, we get them at Sam's and they are huge so we vacuum pack them and when used we cut them in half. Good and VERY useful recipe for us because we eat a lot of chicken on the griddle, thanks for the great ideas and seasoning ideas,. Option, put them on a pretzel roll for a blast sammich too.

  12. that chicken looks godly, so damn good, good work guys. I already can tell how delicious and flavorful it is, and how good it smells, by just staring at it.

  13. People asking is we’re kin… maybe lol it’s the hat and glasses maybe. But as a foodie, I subbed!! Good stuff bro 🙌🙌
    I’m down in Chattanooga area.

  14. Never used a skillet on the griddle. Is there a certain type that is recommended? I'd like to get one and try this.
    thanks

  15. Excellent as always guys! Maybe try your own lemon seasoning next time, you can control everything then. Zest a few big lemons, and add salt & pepper. Boom! Another great video as always!

  16. I love the freshness lemon adds to chicken 🐔 😊😊yours looks and sounds absolutely delicious and that chicken is grilled beautifully my friend 😋 😊😊 thank you so much for sharing 😊 😊
    ❤Annie

  17. Dude one of my redfish and shrimp recipes on the griddle is 95% the same way that you did that chicken!! Awesome! Try it on some fresh fish or shrimp😮‍💨🤤😮‍💨🤤
