ZESTY LEMON CHICKEN

"Here is a mouth watering, taste bud tingling treat for you all."

Pasta or rice for 3-4 people
2 large onions
3 to 5 cloves of garlic
Olive oil
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
1/2 tsp ground coriander or 10 leaves fresh
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp ground ginger
2 lemons
1 chicken stock cube
3 egg yolks

Put pasta or rice on to boil.

Finely chop onions and crush garlic then fry until soft in olive oil.

Add chicken, coriander, pepper, ginger, zest of both lemons.

Dissolve stock cube in 1/3 pint (about 3 tablespoons) of hot water.

When chicken is thoroughly cooked, add stock.

Squeeze juice of both lemons into a small bowl; set aside. Add remaining lemon flesh to chicken.

Add 3 egg yolks to lemon juice and whisk with fork; set aside.

Just prior to pasta or rice being done add egg yolk and lemon juice mixture to chicken. The mixture will now thicken after 2 minutes or so.

Serve pasta or rice on plate then cover with zesty lemon chicken.
