Ingredients

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Grate the lemons, being careful to leave as much of the white pith behind as possible.

Add the lemon zest to the parchment lined baking sheet and spread into as thin of a layer as you can. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until zest is dry. Let cool on counter for 20-30 minutes, until completely cool to the touch.

Add the zest to a jar with the black pepper and kosher salt. Add the lid and shake to mix.

I love this seasoning on chicken, seafood, and pork!
