Yummy in the Tummy - Crispy Lemon Chicken Nugget

Have you ever had food cravings before bed but concerned about health at the same time? This happens in our home from time to time. My boyfriend confessed that he ordered fast food delivery to ease his craving for deep fried chicken when I wasn't at home. He regretted right after sucking the last crunch piece on the finger because of greasy feeling just didn't go away for a while, same as guilt and fat on the waist!

Actually, it is easy to satisfy your appetite and keep the health in control. This Crispy Lemon Chicken Nugget is my pocket recipe to fill in for this special need. Two magical ingredients make this happen: chicken breast and lemon! It cant be more simple with only 3 steps : marinate chicken breast with lemon zest and lemon juice, coat with flour, pan fry! The lemon can balance the unpleasant oily feeling in the mouth with its freshness and sweetness.
