Lemon Chicken

‎09-08-2011 11:38 AM

/><br/> <br/> When I ran across this recipe while going through cookbooks a while ago, I thought it looked like something we'd enjoy. After making it for dinner, I found out it IS a winner.<br/> <br/> This dish is so easy to put together. The chicken baked up quickly in the hot oven-while it was baking, I made the sauce.<br/> <br/> The chicken is crispy on the outside from the crushed cornflakes and moist on the inside. What sends this dish over the top is the sauce......it's the perfect blend of honey and lemon, with garlic and ketchup adding a nice little something extra in the background. A sprinkling of green onions over the top adds a nice fresh flavor.<br/> <br/> We had rice pilaf along side which complimented the chicken nicely. Add in some steamed fresh broccoli and dinner was complete.<br/> <br/> This has been marked in the cookbook as a

Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil; place in oven. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

In a pie pan, combine crushed cereal, ginger and pepper; mix well.

In small bowl, beat egg white, water and soy sauce until frothy.

Brush both sides of chicken with egg white mixture. Place chicken in pie pan; spoon cereal mixture over chicken to coat evenly.

Remove hot foil-lined pan from oven; arrange coated chicken on pan. Bake @ 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear.

Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine broth and cornstarch; blend until smooth. Add honey, lemon juice, ketchup and garlic powder; mix well. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in lemon peel.

To serve, cut each chicken breast in half crosswise into 6-7 pieces; arrange on individual plates. Spoon sauce over chicken; sprinkle with green onions. 4 servings.
