Recipe: Breaded Chicken with Lemon Glaze
I would be doing this for the kids. They always love fried chicken so this would be a welcome variation.
We are trying to eat less pork and beef so this will perfect.
Spend quality time with your loved one with this crispy-on-the-outside, juicy-on-the-inside lemony-sweet dish.
Serves 2 Prep Time 10 minutes Cooking Time 15 minutes
3 chicken breasts, deboned and cut into strips
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup flour
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 cup Japanese breadcrumbs
For the lemon glaze
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup water
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons honey
parsley for garnish
1 Season chicken with salt and pepper. Coat with flour, followed by beaten egg, then with breadcrumbs. Fry chicken in oil until golden.
Set aside.
2 Make the glaze: Dissolve cornstarch in water then throw this mixture in, along with all the other ingredients, in a saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat, until it boils and becomes slightly thick. Drizzle glaze on chicken or serve on the side. Garnish with parsley.
Yummy tip: Prefer a stronger tangy flavor? Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 tablespoon honey to the recipe.
I am Maurice and I find pleasure in gastronomical delights that are a feast in the eyes and taste like heaven in the mouth. Join me as I write about what I eat, want to eat and try to cook. I am on a perpetual non-effective diet all the time.
