Lemon Lemon Chicken

2-Jacques's Note:

This is an easy, quick, tasty throw in the oven for an hour when you come home from work for everyone to enjoy. The chicken has to marinate over night for best results, but a case of forgetfulness won't hurt this meal at all.

• Total Time: 25 hrs
• Prep Time: 24 hrs
• Cook Time: 1 hrs

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 4 chicken thighs
• 6 lemons , 2 sliced thin
• 1 onion , sliced thin
• 1 cup rice , uncooked

Directions:

1. Wash the four chicken thighs, pat dry, salt and pepper.
2. Put the thighs in a one gallon zip lock bag, and pour the juice of three lemons over the chicken and return to the frig until the next day. (I'll flip the zipped chicken a few times to make sure the lemon juice does its job.)
3. On cook day, spray a 13-by-9-by-2 baking dish.
4. Spread the uncooked rice on the bottom, the thin sliced onions on top of the rice.
5. Place the four chicken thighs on top of the sliced onions and pour any juice in the bag over the chicken.
6. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the chicken, then cover the chicken with the two thin sliced lemons.
7. Bake covered for one hour in a 350 degree oven.
8. Remove and let rest for five minutes.
9. Enjoy this lemon lemon chicken dinner!

I added a little bit more lemon to this, I wanted to be sure to have that lemon taste. It was very easy to prepare. I served green beans with this. It was a great meal that I would make again. Thanks for posting this recipe.

This was easy to prepare not too lemony. I added some thinly sliced carrots to add some colour to the dish. Made for my 3 chefs
