I don't make very many main dishes with fruit in them, but my two children and I love this recipe. The chicken's very tender and the sauce is absolutely wonderful.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon lemon juice

just tried this recipe tonight and we absolutely loved it I doubled the sauce recipe and am glad i did. I fixed garlic potatoes with it and the sauce just complimented it. I will definately be fixing this again.
