Honey Lemon Ginger Chicken Recipes

HONEY LEMON GINGER GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a large skillet, over medium heat, add a little olive oil and saute the chicken until cooked through. Keeping the chicken pieces in a single layer and not overcrowding the pan is a great way to cook the chicken quickly and evenly. This should take about 5-7 minutes total. Season with salt and pepper.
• While the chicken is cooking, whisk together all other ingredients until well combined.
• Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set aside.
• Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet, turn the heat to high, and whisk sauce while cooking until thickened. (The sauce should thicken to the consistency of cold maple syrup.)
• Add the chicken back to the skillet and stir to combine and coat with the sauce. Keeping the heat high, and the chicken in a single layer - at least as much as possible - stir the chicken, cooking on all sides. The sauce will stick to the chicken and caramelize. This will take about 3-4 minutes.
• Remove from skillet to serving plate. Garnish with sesame seeds, and freshly sliced Thai chilies. (Optional) Serve immediately.

CHICKEN CUTLETS W/HONEY, LEMON & GINGER SAUCE W/GINGER-HONEY

Steps:

• To make Walnuts: Place the oil, ginger and garlic in a small skillet. Slowly heat over medium-low until the garlic sizzles. Add the walnuts and honey. Cook on medium heat for about 2 to 3 minutes, adjusting the temperature until the honey boils and sticks to the walnuts and the walnuts turn golden. Sprinkle with the salt, adjusting to taste. Transfer to a side dish or a sheet of aluminum foil. Do not put on paper towels because they will stick.
• To make Chicken: With a sharp knife, fillet the chicken breasts through the thickest part to make 8 cutlets.
• Place them on a large piece of plastic wrap, sprinkle with salt and pepper, cover with a second sheet of plastic wrap, and gently but firmly pound the chicken with a meat pounder or the underside of a small, heavy skillet to make fillets of even thickness of 1/4 to 1/3 inch.
• Spread the flour on a large plate and lightly dredge the cutlets; shake off the excess flour.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large, broad skillet until hot enough to sizzle.
• Add the cutlets a few at a time and cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
• As the cutlets are cooked, transfer to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
• Discard the oil in the skillet and let the skillet cool slightly. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, ginger and garlic to the skillet. Heat and stir over medium-low heat just until the garlic sizzles. Add the lemon juice, chicken broth and honey. Heat, stirring to loosen any browned bits in the skillet, for about 3 minutes, or until the mixture boils and thickens. Pour the sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with the walnuts and the scallions.
