With this recipe, I chose to cut it in half, only because I live alone. I found it to need a little more liquid to coat everything properly, so I added a dash of honey, a little more lemon juice, and chose to add ginger paste and pepper for some kick.
I love quick and easy chicken recipes because I can use the chicken for anything I want after. I can eat the chicken alone with some vegetables, or put it on a salad or inside of a wrap for lunch. Really, the possibilities are endless!
