Roasted Chicken With Lemon Cream Sauce

    Cuisine:

    Excellent! used a chicken I had roasted a few days ago, made the sauce and then broiled everything together. It completely repurposed the chicken and made it into a delightful meal. The sauce is yummy! Note: I halved the sauce since I wasn't using the whole chicken.

    Roasted Chicken With Lemon Cream Sauce, I love the smell of chicken roasting in the oven It makes me think of holidays and family gatherings! Plus I can put it in the oven and concentrate on other things for a while just enjoying the smell! Don’t use a fryer roasting chickens are a bit larger and have a higher fat content, making them more flavorful , Excellent! used a chicken I had roasted a few days ago, made the sauce and then broiled everything together It completely repurposed the chicken and made it into a delightful meal The sauce is yummy! Note: I halved the sauce since I wasn’t using the whole chicken , I cut the chicken in half and made a smaller roast with one side as we are only two The citrus sauce is the game winner in this recipe, it’s utterly delicious It would also be great with a pork roast and likely any sturdy fish Total keeper
