I love lemon chicken (柠檬鸡) and I am glad I learnt to make this classic Chinese dish. It is definitely much easier than it looks, for the sauce can be prepared in the matter of minutes. The bright yellow hue totally liven things up on the dinner table.

I like the home-cooked version because the chicken is more tender and chunky, and I can tweak the sauce to my liking. You can serve it with plain white rice or rice cooked with chicken-stock. Deep fry the chicken just before serving so that it is hot and crispy.

Found the article! Thanks for letting me know :)
Your lemon chicken looks divine. Crispy fried chicken with a sauce on top can’t go wrong.

This was great, I love lemon chicken and I never thought I’d be able to cook it at home! Only one quibble – maybe my plum sauce was too strong, but the first time I tried this, I followed the recipe and there was hardly any lemon flavour, just a lot of plum. The second time I used half a lemon worth of juice and it came out perfect. Thanks for the recipe!
Hi, I tried this today. Doesn’t turn out well due to the sauce.
My sauce was so sticky like a harden glue.
Btw, just want to confirm with you the cornstarch solution is 1 teaspoon of cornstarch or 1 tablespoon?
tbsp=tablespoon. “Gradually add cornstarch solution to thicken the sauce to desired consistency.” adjust and add the cornstarch solution used to reach your desired consistency.
