TUSCAN STYLED GRILLED PEPPERED CHICKEN

                                                 From my recipes in the westside newspaper

Hot Tuscan styled grilled peppered Chicken is my own creation. And not to worry if you don’t posses a grill, a girdle or non- stick pan will do.
The predominant flavor is black peppercorn. Serve it with roasted garlic, mashed potatoes and vegetables is what I would suggest.
