LEMON CHICKEN TERIYAKI
I spent two days digging through piles of old magazines and recipe clippings trying to find this recipe. My friend Jenny had made a version she found in an old Taste of Home cooking school edition, only she had made her own changes to the recipe. I happened to have the same issue of the magazine, and had written down Jenny's changes in the margin. I finally found that old clipping. This is a great recipe, really fast. I serve this with some stir fried veggies on the side. There are very few recipes I make that I use the bottled lemon juice concentrate in vs fresh, this is one of them. It just isn't the same using fresh lemon juice. This is very much an American-Asian fusion dish, not an authentic Japanese style teriyaki.

Steps:
- Make sure you have already started your rice cooking in order to time it so that you have nice, fresh, steamed rice ready to serve this on once it is ready.
- In a large skillet, combine lemon juice concentrate, teriyaki sauce, honey, brown sugar, water, garlic, and ginger and allow it to cook over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
- Add the chicken to the pan and cook partially covered for about 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, turning the chicken once about halfway through and basting with the sauce.
- You may need to adjust the heat while cooking the chicken so that you don't burn it.
- Serve with the hot rice and garnish with some fresh parsley and lemon slices if desired.
- I slice my cooked chicken on a bias and serve with some of the reduced sauce ladled over the top. If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can add a little bit of cornstarch mixed with a bit of water to the sauce after first removing the chicken, let the sauce come to a boil and thicken up (only a few minutes).

Teriyaki and lemon based chicken. This recipe my Mom used to make is to die for. Watch out - it's highly addictive!! You are guaranteed to overeat! :-) We always double the sauce amounts to make extra sauce (details below), and then thicken it with a little cornstarch. Wonderful served with sugar pea pods. Add pineapple for dessert!

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. This is especially true for the lemon and chicken.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is a delicate meat that can easily be overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or it will become dry and tough.
- Use a good quality teriyaki sauce: The teriyaki sauce is one of the most important ingredients in this dish. Choose a sauce that is made with real soy sauce and mirin, and that has a good balance of sweet and savory flavors.
- Serve with rice: Lemon chicken teriyaki is traditionally served with rice. This helps to soak up the delicious sauce.
- Garnish with green onions: Green onions add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
Conclusion:
Lemon chicken teriyaki is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. It is also a great dish to serve at parties or potlucks. With its sweet and savory flavors, lemon chicken teriyaki is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
