Healthier Lemon Sauce Recipe Needed (think Chinese Food)
I LOVE the lemon sauce that comes with lemon chicken and could just eat it with everything. I haven't had lemon chicken in such a long time but am really craving it
Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how I can make the sauce healthier so I can still eat one of my favorite Chinese meals?
Thanks

I love lemon chicken too- here is a recipe for a healthier version of it:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/lemonchicken_11654
I ran the ingredients through MFP, and I get 245 cals per portion- I have changed it up slightly to make it lower by:
-Substiting the groundnut oil for 1 cal spray oil
- using granulated splenda (2 tsps) instead of 1 tbsp reg sugar
- using sesame oil sparingly- you only need a few drops for a lot of flavour.
Enjoy!0 -
You rock!! Thank you!0
