I'm not a huge fan of lemon chicken, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The chicken was crispy and the sauce was tangy and flavorful. I would definitely make this again.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try cooking the chicken for a shorter amount of time next time.
