Cooking healthy doesn’t have to be complicated, especially when you begin with the right techniques and ingredients – and a great place to start is The Green Grocer in Portsmouth. Owners John Wood and Aly Marks-Wood are avid nutrition enthusiasts, stocking only foods without nitrates, GMOs, high-fructose corn syrup, artificial ingredients, and factory-farmed animals, plus they source their products from local vendors whenever possible.
Stock up on goods from The Green Grocer or your favorite neighborhood health market to make this classic dish with a healthy twist. Traditionally, lemon chicken is pan-seared and incorporates butter and dairy, but in this recipe, the chicken is slow-cooked in a light lemony gravy and can be served with a variety of nutritious sides. It’s one of those set-it-and-forget-it dinners you’ll want to add to your cooking repertoire for its phenomenal flavor and ease of preparing.
