LEMON CHICKEN SIDES RECIPES

Steps:

• Combine the Chicken (8 piece) and Lemon (1 cup) in a bowl just large enough to hold them comfortably.
• Cover and marinade in the refrigerator overnight or early the morning of cooking, turning every few hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
• Rinse and dry the chicken pieces. Sprinkle lightly with Salt and Pepper (to taste) and set aside.
• In a brown bag add the Paprika (1 teaspoon), All-Purpose Flour (1 cup), Salt and Pepper (to taste). Shake to combine. Add the chicken pieces, 2-3 at a time, and shake to evenly coat in flour. Shake off excess flour and transfer to a plate.
• Add enough Canola Oil (to taste) to coat the bottom of a large skillet by 1". Heat over medium-high heat. Pan-fry the chicken, 2-3 pieces at a time, until well browned and crisped.
• Arrange the browned chicken pieces in a single layer in a large shallow baking dish.
• Combine the Brown Sugar (1 tablespoon), Lemon (1 tablespoon), Salt and Pepper (to taste). Evenly sprinkle the mix over the chicken pieces.
• Mix the Lemon Extract (1 teaspoon) and Chicken Stock (1/4 cup) and pour around the chicken pieces. If using White Wine (1 splash), add a splash or two. Set a thinly sliced Lemon (1) on top of each piece of chicken.
• Bake until fully cooked, about 50 minutes.
• Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the garlic, and cook for just 1 minute but don't allow the garlic to turn brown. Off the heat, add the white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt and pour into a 9 by 12-inch baking dish.
• Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken.
• Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn't browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices.
