   **Lemon Chicken**

   I’m making a golden brown battered chicken tossed in a flavorful lemon curd sauce for a quick keto meal in the wok. It’s ready in a couple of minutes.

   Make the lemon curd ahead of time and store in the fridge until ready to use..

   1 pound skinless chicken pieces, I’m using white chicken breasts cut into bite sized chunks.
