I can buy Lemon pepper in all supermarkets here in UK, so should be able to find, maybe in Freshmarket or Sweet bay.

Macaroni Grill has a great box mix for Chicken Piccata that all you need is cut up chicken breasts. Available at all our grocery stores. I bet you will LOVE it.

It is comparable in price and easier and yummy. I squeeze some fresh lemon in at the end.

The whole house smells of lemon and garlic and the dish disappears immediately.

Thanks for the review on the Macaroni Grill mix, Gracie. I've seen that at the store and wondered about it.

I used lemon pepper when I made this recipe, it worked great.

GG where in the market do you find the Macaroni Grill. I can't find it and I'm starving. Thanks

I'm not GG, but...I've seen it by the packaged dinners (Hamber Helper aisle).
