Directions
Low Fat Lemon Chicken, I found this recipe in the Jolly Cook cookbook The chicken is coated in a flour mixture and baked instead of fried Then serve with a delightful lemon sauce poured over the chicken , Yum, the lemon sauce was beautiful and went wonderfully with the chicken and some rice! I made the full amount of sauce with half the amount of chicken to serve two The only change I made was to use a tablespoon of honey instead of the corn syrup which isn’t widely available in Australia Apart from the low-fat aspect the method was a great taste compromise between no batter at all and the thick coating you often get at Chinese takeouts , Yum, the lemon sauce was beautiful and went wonderfully with the chicken and some rice!
