    Yesterday I cooked it up, and it really tastes wonderful. I can definitely recommend this. For my wife and me, the amount is enough to have dinner 2x.

    I made this tonight for dinner! It was delicious, I love this girl. For decades I never tried to cook Chinese food because I thought it was super hard to make, not with Mandy. Love you Mandy, you are the best.

    I've tried several of this Chef's recipes that turned out better than the best NYC restaurants had to offer. Making this this weekend 🤪. Thank you.

      Seems a really refreshing summer dish, perfect sauce and flavors for crispy chicken.

    Mandy, you have grown in maturity and content, professionalism, everything! I've been enjoying your recipes for many years. My favorite is still Hakka style tofu. But I love your potstickers as well as this. Thank you for continuing to bring us great content and I'm good to help on Patreon. You are wonderful!

    Just made this recipe for lunch and it turned out fantastic! It was my first time frying, but with the simple instructions, nothing burnt and the chicken came out perfectly crispy. The sauce is punchy with the right amount of kick! Highly recommend! 🍗

    I made this a few times and I love it, in fact I'm just making it again now. And I love your tips Mandy especially so the flours in the bag for coating the chicken. That is a game changer for me, I never would have thought about doing this. Thank you for sharing all your great recipes that are easy to follow.

    I made this today and it was spectacular! My sweetie raved and went back for thirds...and now I'm going to do the same method and make Orange Chicken, my other favorite. I am fortunate to have both a lemon tree and a orange tree in my back yard, so the fresh fruit juice really puts it all together. Thank you for the awesome recipe and method. Subscribed

  • @ray_mck
    @ray_mck 2 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    I made this tonight. It is really tasty -- just the right punch of sour to balance the sweet and salty. It was a hit with the family. It's not something I will make extremely often because it *is* very sweet like a lot of Americanized Chinese take-out food. It will stay in my rotation, though, because it does taste so good, and is very easy to prepare! Thank you Mandy for making me and my family happy!

    Looking forward to trying this recipe! Not a lot of restaurants near me make lemon chicken. I used to work next to one where I would normally be buying a $1 side of steamed rice for lunch because of how broke I was. The owner actually suggested I try their lemon chicken, saying it was his favorite of all the Americanized citrusy sweet dishes. I think he was right. It was so good! I ordered it quite a bit when I had the money.

  • @davidf9494
    @davidf9494 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This was my first recipe from your channel and the lemon chicken is the best I've ever tasted - It was perfect - moist, crispy and very tasty. Thank you!
    Looking forward to trying some of your other recipes.

    Hi Mandy, I made this tonight according to your recipe and it turned out PERFECTLY! Crispy and delicious, wonderful breading. The shallow fry worked perfectly (in batches) even with my western pan. Your recipe *tastes* very complex, but with your instructions I found the process simple. Thank you!

  • @pauletteriddle3776

      @@SoupedUpRecipes I'm sure I will like it. Also, I've been meaning to ask you for quite a while....do you ever use "peanut" oil for your stir fried dishes? It has a wonderful flavor and at the same time, a pretty high heating point. In the U.S., it is used often and particularly at Thanksgiving for deep-frying whole turkeys! You really should try it sometime...

  • @Noo1980
    @Noo1980 2 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @Crow_Whiskey
    @Crow_Whiskey ปีที่แล้ว +50

    A few modifications set this off for me. I marinated the chicken overnight before frying. For the sauce I used lemon juice, orange juice, and tangerine peel to add some complexity to the flavor profile. Also fried broccoli before the sauce step and tossed that with the chicken. Superb.
