I don't know if my lemon pepper has more pepper than normal, but this was almost too peppery to eat. I used a scant 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper-I guess that was what was meant by "red peppers". I also used several shakes of salt & pepper, but not what I'd think of as "out of the ordinary". I may try this again, using no extra pepper & much less lemon pepper.

This was delicious and oh so easy. One exceptional thing is the cooking method. It made an incredibly moist breast, far moister than pan frying. I will be using this method often. Clears up the stove top with less need to monitor (i kept the rack one level lower than normal broiling for browning)and used a skillet. Flavors were simple and good and a snap to put together.
