If I don't have a real lemon or lemon juice for my lemon chicken, can I put some lemon squash?

You might be able to bodge with another citrus fruit, but the lemon squash will contain far more sugar/sugar substitute and various chemicals than real lemon juice.

PeppermintPasty · 15/08/2013 16:52

Use garlic. Lemon chicken is shite.

TheTurdsOfMisery · 15/08/2013 16:52

If you were using lemon juice would you temper that with a shitload of sugar and/or artificial sweetener? No? There's your answer then.

Haha oh gawn, try it but you have something else for dinner. Then you can sit and smile while watching everyone force it down and flash each other wtf looks Grin

NB I would never do such a thing as I am lovely Smile

Merrylegs · 15/08/2013 16:54

Yes. But. Ham in coke works. Wouldn't it just give the chicken a sticky sugary glaze?

DameFanny · 15/08/2013 16:54

Where did that Cake come from? Shock

quoteunquote · 15/08/2013 16:55
