The Grimoire: Lemon-Pepper Fish & Chicken with Pepper 'n' Peel
A charm of citrus and spice.
Pepper 'n' Peel is alchemy applied to a classic: lemon zest, coarse black pepper and herbs that bring a bright, zesty pop to chicken and, especially, fish. A little zap and zest where you least expect it.
What you'll need
- 4 fish fillets (cod, haddock or salmon) or 4 chicken breasts/thighs
- A drizzle of oil or a little melted butter
- Pepper 'n' Peel, to coat
- Lemon wedges, to serve
The method
- Pat the fish or chicken dry and brush lightly with oil or melted butter.
- Coat both sides with Pepper 'n' Peel.
- For fish: pan-fry 3–4 minutes a side, or bake at 200°C fan for 12–15 minutes until it flakes. For chicken: cook through, around 6–7 minutes a side.
- Finish with a good squeeze of fresh lemon.
Sage's tips
- Stir a spoonful into mayo or yoghurt for a quick lemon-pepper dip.
- Lovely on roasted asparagus or new potatoes as a side.
