Lemon chicken |
Tonight I am making lemon chicken with Italian fried potatoes and carrots for dinner. It is a quick and simple dinner using my favorite saute and bake formula. I begin the carrots quickly bringing them to a boil and turn off the heat to finish, as they are a vegetable that will not get soggy or loose flavor. Then I slice an Idaho potato into circles and brown in olive oil seasoning with pepper, garlic salt and oregano. When they are nice and brown on one side I flip and adjust the seasoning. I then place them in a 350@ oven to finish cooking. Now it is time to cook the chicken. I lightly flour my chicken breast and saute in butter in my antique copper saute skillet. When it has browned on one side I flip, turn off the heat and douse with the juice of a whole fresh lemon. Then I place the chicken in the oven to finish cooking with the potatoes. Voila, dinner is ready!
The best part is that I have the remnants of the fresh lemon which I use to shine my kitchen faucet and sink. This is a powerful friend in the department of home beautiful. Lemon juice will remove nasty stains and lime buildup. And this lemons job is still not done. Instead of throwing it into the trash grind it in your garbage disposal for a refreshing cleansing and sweet smell.
