Lemon Chicken

Tasty, fast and healthy, this recipe ticks so many boxes!

First, get 2 cups of rice cooking according to the packet instructions.

Mix together the sauce ingredients, stirring over heat until the sauce boils and thickens

4 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp chicken stock (we recommend the vegeta brand)
2 tbsp sugar
4 tsp dry sherry
2 tsp light soy sauce
1/2 tsp sweet chilli sauce
2 tsp cornflour dissolved in 1/2 cup water

Next, heat 1 tsp of peanut oil in a large pan and stir fry 2 crushed cloves of garlic, and 450g chicken thigh fillets until chicken in browned lightly (not quite cooked, you will finish it off at the end). Remove them all from the pan.

Then, use the same pan to stir fry 600g frozen veg for about 5 mins. Add the chicken and lemon sauce into the pan and continue to stir fry until cooked through. Serve with rice.

This is such a yummy meal we couldn't wait to take a photo, hence the random lemon-coloured-chicken pic with this post. So....YOU are invited to cook this meal and email your photo to bondingmeals at gmail dot com. We'd love to see your handiwork and update this post with your pic, and then every time we make lemon chicken we will think of you fondly.
