Sticky Citrus Chicken

By

Once in a while recipes get forgotten about in the deepest darkest depths of my cookbook, and this is one of them. Until I made it last night I had forgotten how much I liked it. It was meant to have garlic in it, but I had forgotten to buy any, however I have to admit that both hubby and I thought it tasted better without! We had it with egg fried rice. When you marinade the chicken briefly in the lemon juice it helps to tenderise it.
