This black and white peppered chicken is just as simple as it sounds. Yes, pepper and chicken is about it, besides a couple of common staples like salt and butter. The prep time and the cook time are equally as simple, so much so that you’ll be surprised at how much flavor it has with so little effort.

Black and White Peppered Chicken

Chicken Breasts: It’s a good idea to pound out the chicken before cooking. Pounding out the chicken breast to a uniform thickness allows the chicken to cook more evenly and faster, it also tenderizes the meat which makes it more juicy and flavorful.

White Pepper: This comes from the same plant as black pepper it’s just the way that it’s aged and processed that gives it a different color and a different flavor. If your wondering about the flavor, white pepper has more of an earthy flavor with a bit of heat than black pepper.

Coarse Black Pepper: When a recipe calls for black pepper you should always grind it yourself. Freshly ground pepper has more of a kick and will be more noticeable in your dish.
