Cheating Chinese lemon Chicken

thumbnail for this post

A while ago I made a cheating version of one of my favourite Chinese takeaway dishes, orange chicken. Last week I made a lemon version and it was even better! Follow the orange chicken instructions but use the following for the pour over/boil sauce.

You will need

  • 1 tablespoon of lemon curd (or whatever clings to the inside of a nearly finished jar)
  • a chilli finely chopped
  • the juice of half a lemon
  • a splash of soy

Do

  1. Same as Orange Chicken, though this time I left the chicken in bigger chunks and it was better.

Result

Sharp and sweet, crispy and salty, spicy and hot.

Tasty tasty get in my face
