I'm not a fan of lemon chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was tangy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

I would give this recipe a 3 out of 5. The chicken was a bit dry and the sauce was too tangy for my taste. However, the recipe was easy to follow and the chicken cooked quickly.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken turned out dry and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

Easy and delicious! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked in no time. The sauce is amazing - I could drink it! Served over rice, it was a perfect meal.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out great. The sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste, but that's just personal preference. Overall, a good recipe.
