Lemon Chicken is a flavorful dish featuring tender chicken typically marinated or cooked with lemon juice, zest, and a blend of seasonings. Originating in Mediterranean and Asian cuisines, this versatile recipe highlights the tangy brightness of lemon paired with savory chicken, often enhanced by garlic, herbs, or light sauces. Many versions may include a touch of honey or soy sauce for depth and balance. Rich in protein and vitamin C, Lemon Chicken can be a nutritious choice when prepared with minimal oil and fresh ingredients. However, some variations may use heavy breading, added sugar, or creamy sauces, which can increase calorie and fat content. Opting for grilled, baked, or sautéed preparations with wholesome sides like steamed vegetables or whole grains can enhance its healthfulness while retaining its bright, invigorating flavors.
