Lemon Pepper Sheet Pan Chicken
We spent many summers going from France to our farm in Charlottesville, VA. Corn wasn’t something that we ate much on the other side of the pond, but once we stepped onto the farm and lit the fire pit, the smell of lemon pepper over corn cobs slathered with butter meant summer had arrived. We make this chicken dish when corn is long gone- because lemon and pepper are always in season!
