Zia Maria’s Lemon Chicken will always have a special place in my heart. The smell and taste of this dish bring back memories of her making this on her first and last trip to the United States. Food holds memories. Food is love. Enjoy!
Zia Maria’s Lemon Chicken
Course: MainIngredients
1 whole, cut up chicken
2 lemons
2 sprigs rosemary or oregano
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Directions
- Place chicken pieces in a large pan over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper and brown chicken on each side without using grease (the skin will provide the necessary fat for browning).
- Squeeze the lemons over chicken and place sprigs of herbs on top. Reduce heat to low and cover.
- Simmer for 2 hours turning every 30 minutes.
