Cook stirring constantly over medium heat until mixture thickens and boils. 5. Boil 1 minute, stirring constantly; stir in butter, lemon juice and the peel. 6. Immediately pour into pre-baked pie shell. 7. Cover completely with meringue-carefully sealing to the edges. 8. Bake about 10 minutes or until meringue browns lightly. 9.
