I completely get it.<br /><br />And as for my lemon chicken recipe, I just copy by memory the dish my mom made, omitting the capers because my husband can't stand capers. Here is the basic recipe:<br /><br />You warm up an electric frying pan (this is what my mom did) to med-high. Pound as many boneless, skinless chx breasts as you think you need and dredge in flour. Coat them really well.<br /><br />Then, heat up either butter or olive oil in the pan (the amount just depends on how big you want your thighs to be - but I'd estimate about 2-3 tablespoons). Then add the chicken, you can season w/salt and pepper if want, but I like mine pretty naked...except for the lemon.<br /><br />So then you cook the chicken until it's done inside and nice golden brown on the outside and remove it frm pan. Then add about 1 cup chicken broth and the lemon juice...here is where it gets tricky - use as much lemon juice as you see fit (could be 1/4 cup - or could be 1/2 depending on how lemony you like it). Continue to cook the liquid, stirring up all the delicious pan cracklings, until it is thick (you might have to make a roux w/flour and a little more broth if it doesn't get thick enough for you). This would also be the time to add capers if you like 'em.<br /><br />Then, when the sauce is finished, add the chicken back into the pan. I add lemon slices at this point because I love them so much.<br /><br />And I also use butter...because it just tastes so good. And I probably use more than I told you to use because...well - you know.<br /><br />We like to eat it with steamed broccoli and some linguini. In fact, I think we'll put this on the menu for this week and kick something else off!<br /><br />I hope it works for you. Let me know!<br /><br />:)carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038972194323564240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6247666709399793599.post-10592047283289764452010-01-18T13:47:51.519-06:002010-01-18T13:47:51.519-06:00I am so glad that you are back!

And it's nice to have a place just to brag about how proud I am!<br /><br />Thanks for the visit, Jennifer! Yes, my pride over whatever my kids do is so much more than anything I've ever done--except make them.

And of course whatever they did is the most amazing thing. Ever. This is the true joy of parenting. The overwhelming love and joy over each little thing. It's way better than whatever we've lived ourselves. You've summed it up brilliantly. (Just popping over to visit from Aunt Becky's BTW.)
