Tammys Lemon Chicken Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the orzo: Whisk together the stock, butter, salt, cornstarch, dill, lemon zest and juice and garlic in a bowl. Mix in the orzo.
• For the chicken: In a separate bowl, mix together the coriander, salt and pepper. Coat the chicken all over with the seasoning.
• Pour the stock/orzo mixture into a glass 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add the chicken breasts, laying them at an angle so all but the tops of the breasts are submerged. Shingle the lemon slices in between the chicken breasts.
• Bake, uncovered, until the chicken registers an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, 35 to 40 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes. Top with the chopped parsley before serving.

Steps:

• Sear the chicken in the casserole dish until golden, with 1 tbsp of olive oil (10-15 mins).
• Once chicken is cooked, remove and add the shallots and carrots to the dish with 4 tbsp of water. Season with salt and pepper. Fry until softened.
• Add garlic to the carrots and shallots, stirring for 1 minute, then add the chicken pieces to the dish.
• Grate the lemon zest into a heatproof jug. Squeeze in the lemon juice, add honey and crumble in a stock cube. Poor in 1 litre of boiling water. Stir to melt honey.
• Add the potatoes, pour in lemony stock and add the rosemary and thyme. Cover and bake for 2 hours at 350 degrees. When there is 20 minutes of bake time left, add the gravy and finish baking.
• Serve warm.
