Lemon Chicken

This is a fantastically tasty and delicious dish that you will want to make again and again. The lemon really comes through along with a depth of other flavours. Serve it up with some rice and spring rolls and there will be no need to order take out.

Ingredients

2 chicken breasts (sliced into ½ strips)
½ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon fresh ground pepper
¼ teaspoon coriander
Zest of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Juice of 1 lemon (about 3 tablespoons)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
¼ cup chopped cilantro (optional)

Directions

Place your sliced chicken breasts into a medium mixing bowl. Season with salt, pepper, coriander and lemon zest. Stir very well so that everything is evenly distributed.
Now add the flour and stir again.
Preheat a large fry pan on medium high heat. Add the butter and once melted, add the chicken. Brown the chicken until nice and golden all over and almost cooked through.
Now add the sugar, lemon juice and soy sauce and stir well. Cook until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
Serve immediately with your favourite sides and garnish the chicken with chopped cilantro or basil.
