lemon chicken - does this sound right?

[Sugarmagnolia]

My mum used to make a really nice lemon flavoured chicken dish but she can't remember how she did it so I'm kind of guessing. I've got half a dozen chicken pieces (w/skin & bones). I'm planning to brown them in some olive oil along with some onions and garlic then add white wine, stock & lemon juice & parsely, let it cook for about 40 minutes, then throw in some sugar snap peas at the last minute. I'm going to serve it over rice.

Does that sound all right? Does anyone have any advice or suggestions before I try it? And do I need to put the wine in first to let the alcohol burn off before I add the stock and the lemon juice? thanks!

Sounds really nice to me. I make mine very simply - squeeze the juice of one lemon then add some soya sauce and a little honey, put the chicken breats in foil (no skin) and pour over the sauce. Bake in the oven for 30 mins - tastes great - very lemony!!

I do mine the same way as stargazer (only I leave the chicken in the fridge marinating in the sauce for a few hours) but you're way sounds good, sugarmagnolia.

ps I would put the wine in before the stock & let it bubble for a couple of mins.

I have done variations before with soy sauce & honey but I'm trying to make one that's not sweet. Thanks for the tip about the wine, I wasn't sure.

It was lovely.

DH hated it.
