This chicken looked too good to pass up. It was really flavor packed and delicious. We had it with brown rice spooning the sauce over it, and Italian green beans. Yummity yum!

This fit the bill for my current lemon fetish! I used chicken thighs that I skinned, deboned and butterflied the thick part. They turned out perfectly! Lovely balance of flavours. Even my DH who is not a lemon fan thoroughly enjoyed this fast and easy chicken. Thanks Derf for another make again recipe. Made for Billboard Recipe Tag.

Great flavor and easy to make, we enjoyed it. I did use bone-in breast because that is what I had, just cooked a little longer.

I cut the recipe back to 1 breast cut that in half and then followed the recipe. I have one word for this recipe DELICIOUS. The chicken remains moist and tender. The subtle taste of lemon and ginger comes through so nicely.It is fast andeasy to prepare. A do again and again recipe.
