LEMON-PEPPER FRIED CHICKEN
This lemon-pepper chicken was popular with my friends in grad school. We used to do the prep work at our desk and coffee table in the living room since we had only about 1 1/2 square feet of counter space in our tiny kitchenette. Serve chicken over rice with gravy, garnished with freshly ground pepper and lemon zest.

Steps:
- Mix bread crumbs, lemon-pepper seasoning, basil, oregano, garlic powder, and salt together in a shallow dish.
- Pat chicken pieces dry with paper towels, dip in beaten eggs, and dredge through bread crumb mixture.
- Heat enough oil to thickly coat the bottom of a frying pan over medium heat. Fry chicken until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, 8 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chicken breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

LEMON PEPPER BREAD
This quick bread says "spring" to me. It's a little sweet and peppy, with a bright lemony taste and is heavenly slathered with real butter. Delicious with seafood and spring's fresh-tasting vegetable dishes. It's one of my favorites from the Silver Palate cookbooks; the original recipe also includes chives, but I just didn't care for their oniony taste in this bread and so I've omitted them. If you're interested in trying it, the measurement is 1/4 cup snipped fresh chives.

High-gluten flour can be found in health food stores." This recipe is geared toward the Zojirushi machine; if you try this and have a DAK, Welbilt, Hitachi, Panasonic, National, Regal, Maxim, Sanyo, Small Welbilt, or Small Panasonic/National machine, just zmail me and I'll communicate somehow the recommendations for whichever of those machines you're using.

Tips:
- Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. The zest and juice of fresh lemons will give your bread a bright, citrusy flavor that is unmatched by bottled lemon juice or lemon extract.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense bread. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread in a loaf pan that has been greased and floured. This will help the bread to rise evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread to set and develop its full flavor.

Lemon pepper bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great gift for friends and family. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a beginner, this recipe is sure to be a success. So grab your ingredients and get baking!
