Chinese Lemon Chicken

This was good! It was easy to make and my husband and I enjoyed it. However, he said it doesn't taste as good reheated the next day. So eat it all up when first served!

  • Ingredients
  • For the marinate:
  • 2 tablespoon of soy sauce
  • For the batter:
  • Boneless chicken breast (cut into cubes)
  • 1 egg
  • ½ teaspoon of baking powder
  • ¼ cup of water
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • ¾ cup of corn flour
  • For the sauce:
  • 2 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • ¼ cup of sugar
  • ¾ cup of chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon of corn flour
  • 2 tablespoon of butter (I used dairy free butter and it tastes the same)
  • Lemon slices
Directions

1. Marinate chicken with soy sauce 30 minutes in the fridge
2. Mix all the ingredients for batter. (I had to add some more corn flour.) Mix it so that it will coat the chicken nicely
3. Coat the chicken into the batter and fry it until golden brown. Don't overcook. Place the chicken in a dish
4. For the sauce, melt butter under low heat. Then pour chicken broth in. When boiling, add lemon juice and sugar.
5. Dissolve corn flour with some water, pour inside sauce. Stir until it thicken. Add lemon slices. Remove pan from heat
6. Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve
