Chicken Lemon Chicken Mom Recipes

Steps:

• Dredge chicken pieces in flour or cornstarch and brown in oil.
• Make braising liquid which consists of:.
• 4 tablespoons sherry.
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce.
• 1/4 teaspoons sugar.
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed.
• 1 slice fresh ginger, crushed.
• 1 teaspoons sesame oil.
• 2 whole star anise.
• 2 dried red chili peppers, broken in half.
• Pour over browned chicken pieces for about 15 minute or until tender.
• Combine 3/4 cup lemon juice and 3/4 cup sugar to make lemon sauce. Simmer for 10 minute.
• Meanwhile combine 2 teaspoons cornstarch and 2 teaspoons water, add to lemon -sugar mixture and cook until clear. Add grated lemon rind and pour over chicken.
• Garnish with green onions.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, rosemary, chile flakes, nutmeg, salt, pepper and garlic. Place the chicken pieces in a resealable bag and pour the marinade in, coating all of the meat. Allow the chicken to marinate, refrigerated, 1 to 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Set up a grill for cooking with indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Allow the temperature to come up to 375 degrees F.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade. Place the chicken pieces skin-side up on the indirect-heat side of the grill and close the lid. Cook the chicken until almost cooked through, about 10 minutes. Move the chicken pieces over to the direct heat side of the grill and cook until nicely charred and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Add onion, shallots, and garlic; cook and stir until onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 of the butter.
• While onion mixture is cooking, season chicken thoroughly with salt and pepper. Add chicken to the skillet and toss to coat. Add the zest and juice of 1 lemon. Stir until chicken becomes opaque. Season with pepper again and add remaining lemon zest and juice.
• Pour in chicken broth and remaining butter; stir, cover, and let simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Mix cornstarch with 1/4 cup water and stir into the skillet. Cook over medium-low heat until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
