Broiling chicken lets you have dinner on the table in very little time. One simple chicken recipe that involves broiling is a recipe for Lemon Chicken. You will have to make the marinade in advance because you have to let the chicken soak in it for several hours. Doesn’t that taste yummy?
Ingredients:
1 small chicken cut into pieces or you can use chicken breasts, thighs or legs.
¼ cup of lemon juice
½ a square of butter
1 small onion grated, or you can use minced onion
1 clove of garlic, minced
½ tsp of salt
½ tsp of celery salt
½ tsp of pepper
½ tsp of rosemary
¼ tsp of thyme
Directions:
Combine all the ingredients and pour it into a shallow pan. A baking pan with sides works well. Place the chicken into the marinade and cover with foil. Place in the refrigerator for at least two to three hours.
When you are ready to cook dinner, take the chicken pieces out of the marinade and arrange them on your broiling pan. As you broil the pieces, turn them often and brush with the marinade.
Another simple chicken recipe that is sure to become a family favourite is that of Chicken Divan. This is the perfect simple chicken recipe to use when you have leftover chicken.
