Lemon Chicken And Rice Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Morninlite / All my dishes 1 year, 5 months ago I made this a lot my first year of marriage. It was quick, it was cheap (back then anyway) and my new hubby liked it. It also helped that my in-laws had a lemon tree. Boy I miss that, but it wouldn't like the Michigan winters! Prep:15m Cook:20m Servings:4	Morninlite

Meant to tell you a couple of days ago that I made this for dinner. Delicious! I did make some adjustments to our tastes. I substituted chicken broth for water, used instant brown rice, sauteed a small onion in butter and mixed that in with the rice before cooking, and topped it all with parmesan when it came out of the oven and then let it melt. Very nice recipe - simple and easy, too. Thanks!
