The other day, Carson and I were watching the Food Network and we caught Frank Pellegrino show Ina Garten how to make his famous Lemon Chicken and then the following happened...
Carson only had to look over at me, and his eyes asked, "you are going to the market, aren't you, to go get all of the ingredients to make this, aren't you?" I looked back at him, and my eyes replied, "yes, yes I am going to do that, just as soon as you get the kids away from me so I can go shop in peace." And then my son said, out loud, "why are you guys staring at each other like that." He doesn't understand Eye Talking, I guess. Alas, I did go later that day and picked up a chicken (and had the butcher butterfly it and remove the spine), some fresh lemons and parsley. I had the rest of the ingredients at home, that's how simple this dish is.
As Ina says in the episode, if you're going to call something 'Lemon Chicken' than it better taste like lemon, and THIS tastes like lemon. The chicken is juicy, the skin is crisp, and the lemon flavor is off the charts. For the recipe, click here.
