Lemon-and-mustard flavoured chicken paired with sautéed peas makes a fabulous one-dish dinner that can be prepared in just 20 minutes. Lemon zest is a great way to infuse some flavour to chicken and other dishes. Lemon zest is made up of the outermost peel of the lemon which is one of the most flavourful. Use a box grater or vegetable peeler to zest the lemon. If your grocery store stocks pea shoots, try them as a garnish for this dish. Their crunch and earthy flavour will be a treat with the sharp flavours of lemon and mustard.
