Spicy
Lemon Chicken Recipe
I
took a favorite recipe and modified it to work in a pressure cooker. We enjoy
this tender lemony chicken with rice or buttered noodles.
Ingredients
:
1
medium onion, chopped
1/3
cup water
1/4
cup lemon juice
1
tablespoon canola oil
1/2
to 1 teaspoon salt
1/2
teaspoon each garlic powder, chili powder and paprika
1/2
teaspoon ground ginger
1/4
teaspoon pepper
4
boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each )
4-1/2
teaspoons cornstarch
4-1/2
teaspoons cold water
Hot
cooked noodles
Chopped
fresh parsley, optional
In
a greased 6-qt. electric pressure cooker, combine onion, water, lemon juice,
oil and seasonings. Add chicken; turn to coat. Lock lid; close pressure-release
valve. Adjust to pressure-cook on high for 10 minutes. Let pressure release
naturally for 5 minutes; quick-release any remaining pressure. A thermometer
inserted in chicken should read at least 165°. Remove chicken and keep warm.
In
a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually stir into
cooking juices. Select saute setting and adjust for low heat. Simmer, stirring
constantly, until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Serve with chicken over noodles.
Sprinkle with parsley if desired.
