The quickest, easiest, lemon chicken, with a tangy, sweet sauce, and lots of crispy crunch. Plus it comes together in 15 minutes.
Some days just don’t go as planned. You know? Like you think you are going to get this or that done, but instead you basically would have accomplished more had you stayed in bed and at the very least caught up on a little sleep.
I try to be organized, and have a schedule I stick to, but the reality is as a mom, my schedules and organization often look more like little bombs went off in every corner of my house, my children are street urchins, and I…well, let’s not even talk about what I sometimes look like. Instead, let’s talk about this chicken. You guys…it is easy. And it is so yummy. Like lick your plate clean yummy. That is, if you like lemon chicken. And have taste buds.
Do you guys remember those totally easy blender crab and cream cheese wontons I shared a while back? Well, I made lemon dipping sauce for them, and it was good. So good I made a huge batch and put it in my fridge for future use. This is the future use.
