To tell the truth, in China we never saw the lemon chicken that we like so much. But it does not matter, because 80% of the times I go to a Chinese I ask it, be more or less authentic! Is that it is to suck your fingers mmm ... So ta-dan we leave the Lemon Chicken Recipe (Chinese)... that once again it is very easy!
Ingredients (for 2 people)
- 1 chicken breast
- 1 Eggs Breadcrumbs
- 25gr cornstarch
- 25gr of sugar
- 2 lemons
- Sesame seeds (optional)
Elaboration
1. Cut the breast into fillets (or in the form of squares or as you prefer!), We salted it, we passed them through the cornmeal and we bathed them in the beaten egg.
2. We pass them through breadcrumbs and fry them.
3. We put them on paper to remove excess oil.
4. Prepare the sauce: squeeze the 2 lemons and add ½ cup of water.
5. In a saucepan we cook the lemon juice, water and sugar. Mix and let it reduce by half (5-10 minutes).
6. Meanwhile mix a teaspoon of cornstarch with 1 of water and add it to the lemonade reduction.
7. Let it boil until the desired consistency is obtained.
8. When the sauce is ready, we will place the fillets on a plate and toss on top.
9. Accompany with white rice and lemon slices(if you like them you can add sesame seeds to the chicken)
Take advantage!!
Hopefully our Lemon Chicken Recipe you liked it 🙂
