Chinese Lemon Chicken

I already have a Lemon Chicken recipe up here, but that one's healthier and easier which obviously means it sucks.

I didn't have a recipe for this one, tried it by mixing a few different things. You'll probably have to adjust according to your own taste.

Ingredients

Marinade:

1 Chicken breast (cubed)
¼ tsp Salt
1 tsp Black pepper
¼ tsp Rosemary
3 tbsp Cornflour
Of 1 lemon Lemon juice
Of 1 lemon Lemon zest

Lemon Chili Sauce:

3 cloves Garlic (minced)
2 tbsp Soya sauce
4 tbsp Sriracha
2 tbsp Chili sauce
Lemon juice (3-4 lemons)
Lemon zest (1-2 lemons)

1½ cup Chicken stock
½ tsp Salt
½ tsp Pepper
1 tbsp Honey
2-3 tbsp Brown sugar
½ cup Cornflour slurry
2 Onions (cubed)

Method:

Mix the marinade and make sure to coat the chicken evenly. Set aside for 15-20 mins. Sauté garlic in some olive oil or butter, whichever. Add the chicken stock, the sauces and seasoning - let it simmer on low heat until it starts reducing.

In a deep pan, add oil to deep fry the chicken. Don't gasp in horror at the unhealthiness, just do it. Once the chicken is golden brown, set aside to drain.

Add cornflour slurry to the lemon chili sauce - make sure it's boiling - and mix until thick. Add chicken and onions, coat well. Serve with garlic rice, or if you want to go really crazy: lemon rice. Add lemon juice to the rice while boiling, zest while stir frying and voila.

Mango Chaat

I hate fruits. Yes, even mangoes. I mean... I'll eat mangoes, or lychee or pomegranate but only if force fed. Pls don't throw those eggs at me, it's not my fault. I was born like this. I think I'm missing an important piece in my brain/nervous system so pls. Stop with the judgy. That random HOW-DARE-YOU-EVEN-EXIST-YOU-HEATHEN tidbit aside, everyone else I know is insaaaaaane about mangoes. Thought I'd try this on poor innocent guests and the family loved it too.
