Tips
- The secret is to reserve a portion of the lemon garlic parmesan marinade on the side prior to adding the chicken to it. Then use that reserved marinade when serving the dish as a sauce. It makes all the difference and levels up the end product.
- If you don’t like lemon you can sub in white vinegar.
