So I was thinking that there are a million chicken recipes and people make themselves crazy picking one to cook for dinner. At work we do it another way; we cook off many chickens at once using a standard recipe. You then decide what sauce or condiment to serve with it. This way my crew always does the same thing unless directed otherwise. I now have room to play with how I want to serve the chicken. A chimichurri sauce, maybe a Peruvian cilantro sauce or possibly a Tikki masala cream sauce. You see, the hard part is done and it ain’t that hard. Cook the chicken and then let your imagination go wild. This is also how we do it in our home for week night dinners.

The secret is the lemon. It acts as a steaming agent and keeps even the white meat juicy and fragrant.

PS: Get yourself a instant read thermometer, it makes life so much easier.
