Yummy Lemon Chicken


What a hit this was! Super easy, using one oven-safe frying pan/skillet.  I had NO leftovers.  My husband’s comment was, “you can make this again!”.  My children ate happily and kept asking for more.

Preheat oven at 350℉

Heat some olive oil in the skillet, sauté for 1 minute

  • 1 onion, cut into slices

Add and continue to sauté for 6 minutes

  • 6-8 chicken thighs, cut up in small to medium bite-size chunks

In a bowl, mix together:

  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup liquid honey
  • Grated rind of one lemon
  • Squeezed juice of that one lemon

Add this liquid mixture into the sauteed chicken thighs and onions.

Continue sautéing on medium for 10 mins.

Sprinkle on top of the chicken and sauce,

  • 1 Tablespoon white sugar

Place skillet into the preheated oven and cook for another 10-15 mins until lightly browned on top.

During this time, prepare the side-dishes.  I served this with buttered egg noodles and steamed cauliflower.

Would be lovely with:

  • Steamed white rice or coconut rice with broccoli
  • Mashed potatoes and steamed peas & carrots
