This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I usually make a double batch of the sauce and freeze it for later.

I'm not a huge fan of lemon, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the sauce was light and refreshing.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. The chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce is amazing.
