french lemon chicken recipe

Ingredients

  • 400g chicken
  • 2 coriander sprigs
  • 3 limes
  • 2 onions
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • salt, pepper


INSTRUCTION

STEP 1
Wash, dry and peel the coriander, then prepare the marinade essential for the lemon chicken recipe. Squeeze the juice of two limes, pour it into a dish, and add 1 tbsp of oil and coriander and mix.

STEP 2
Cut the chicken cutlets into pieces, taking care to preserve the skin, put them in the dish and drizzle with lime marinade. Cover the dish and set aside for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Meanwhile, peel the onions and chop them.

STEP 3
Let's move on to cooking your lemon chicken. Preheat the oven to th.7 (210oC). Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a non-stick frying pan and melt the onions over low heat, stirring regularly. When the onions are cooked, take them out of the heat and spread them in the bottom of an ovenproof dish. Then place the chicken pieces on top, pour in the marinade, salt and pepper.

STEP 4
The chicken is cooked in the oven for 30 minutes to 1 hour of cooking (depending on the amount of chicken with lemon). Serve decorated with a few wedges of the remaining lime and accompanied by vegetables such as zucchini or a few potatoes.

DIETETIC
Baking limits the use of fat. The lemon marinade perfumes and makes the meat softer without bringing many calories. Keeping the skin of the chicken while cooking prevents the poultry from drying out. Chicken, once removed, is a lean meat rich in protein, which is used to renew our cells and promote healing. Therefore, it is necessary to consume meat or an equivalent (fish, eggs...) 1 to 2 times a day.

Tricks
Don't hesitate to replace lemon juice with orange juice for more originality. You can accompany this chicken rice with basmati rice.
