Recipe Ingredient
- 1 small or 1/2 large free range chicken
- Salt and pepper
- Corn flour for dredging
- 1 cup oil (for frying)
- Sauce:
- 3 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp apricot jam
- 1 tsp finely shredded lemon rind
- 75 ml water
- 1 level tsp cornflour
Instructions
- Cut chicken into serving pieces. (If serving small children, you may even like to de-bone the chicken.) Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper and then roll in the corn flour, shaking off excess.
- Heat oil in a shallow pan or wok and fry chicken, a few pieces at a time, until golden brown. As they cook, transfer them onto a serving dish.
- To make sauce, combine all the sauce ingredients in a small pan and stir over low heat until sauce bubbles and thickens. Drizzle over the chicken and serve immediately.
