My friend, Carol, graciously gave me a bag of lemons from her tree. Lemon seems to be the flavor of the month. These fit into my plan for a chicken dish, some cookies, and are a good idea for Christmas presents. I stored the left over lemons in a glass container in my kitchen.
Lemon Chicken Recipe

Organic whole chicken (Buying whole and cutting it yourself is a good money saver.)
4 organic lemons, cut into wedges
1 red pepper, washed, diced, deseeded
