PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Lemon Chicken just out of the oven ..."
Posted by Karchita on 02-17-11 at 01:57 AM
... and DH just called that he's running late. Too bad for him because I could not wait.

OMG, this was really good. Very easy to make and nice and tart and lemony and it looked beautiful both in the pan and served over a bed of rice. I took photos and will try to add them later. I actually thought mine looked even better than the photo SG "borrowed". Most lemon chicken recipes I have encountered are a bit insipid, but not this one.

I made the following changes:

• made it with enough chicken to serve six (started with three whole breasts) but the full amount of sauce

• added a bit of garlic to the marinade

• doubled all the spices except the salt

• used 1/2 tsp of salt, but felt it could have used a bit more. I actually added a bit from the shaker after my first taste, which I rarely feel the need to do.

• opted for whole wheat flour

• skipped the sugar. I thought about adding just a bit to balance the lemon, but I was afraid of having too much sweetness, so I left it out entirely. It was rather tart, but that is what both I and Mr. Karchita prefer.

• it was done after 30 minutes

Thanks, Silvergirl. This one's a keeper!
