- Pull the skin back and season with lemon pepper seasoning then pull the skin back over and season the outside and place in a bag and marinate overnight..
- Grill over medium heat turning often and basting with the butter sauce. Cut the lemons in half and grill them once the chicken is almost done. Either grill or cook the asparagus in the oven..
