List of Ingredients




3 # chicken pieces
2 T soy sauce
The zest of 1 lemon, finely chopped
1/3 C lemon juice
1 C water
1 T sugar
1 T finely chopped fresh ginger
1 t sesame oil
1 t cornstarch mixed with
1 T water
Lemon slices and chopped scallions (spring

Recipe



Rub the chicken pieces with 1 T of the soy sauce and
set aside. Combine the remaining tablespoon of soy sauce, lemon zest, lemon juice, water, and sugar in a small bowl, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Heat the sesame oil in a wok or large, heavy skillet over high heat. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides. Add the ginger and
cook for 1 minutes. Add the lemon mixture and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to very low and simmer the chicken covered for 20 minutes. Remove the chicken to a warm platter and add the cornstarch mixture to the pan. Stir the mixture until it boils and has thickened. Spoon over the chicken pieces and garnish with lemon slices and chopped scallions.
Serves 4 to 6.
