From Mishpacha:
8 chicken cutlets
1 and 1/2 cups potato starch
1/4 tsp. salt
2-4 TBsp sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
5-6 eggs
4-5 TBsp lemon juice
1 tsp. lemon rind (for those who use it)
oil, for frying
Mix together potato starch, salt, sugar and baking powder. Set bowl aside.
With a whisk, mix together eggs, lemon juice, and lemon rind. Add the dry mixture to this and mix together. It should have the consistency of a cake batter.
Pound chicken cutlets so they will be fully cooked when fried. Leave them whole or cut into smaller portions. Dip the pieces into batter, making sure to fully coat them. Deep fry them in oil for s5-8 minutes on each side. Set them aside.
Dipping Sauce:
2 TBSp. potato starch
1/3 cup sugar (1/2 if you like it really sweet)
1 cup orange juice, preferable fresh
1/4 cup lemon juice (2-3 Tbsp. if you like less tangy)
Put all ingredients in a small pot, cook and stir until thickened.
Note:
this tastes best eaten fresh. if you want to reheat it, cover, just three quarters of the pan so the chicken will not get soggy. Also, the sauce tends to congeal when put away for the next day. Heating it will liquefy it.

thank you. I always loved lemon chicken but I have ciliac disease. if this tastes anything like the real one, I have finally found a gluten free alternative for year round.

haha! I just typed Pesach Chicken into the search box, and clicked on this thread. Read the recipe and decided to make it, and then scrolled down to see that I made this 2 years ago! lol I have no recollection of this recipe at all, but if it worked for me once, I'll make it again
Thanks, Tweedledee!

Bumping up this recipe. This is an awesome Pesach chicken recipe!
I actually make the sauce year round now. My husband loves it.

This sounds really good but what do you serve it with if not rice? To me it doesn't really seem to go with potatoes....

If you read the recipe, this is not a dish WITH a large sauce. It is a fried cutlet with a dipping sauce so you don't serve it over rice like a typical sauced stir fry. Think of how people eat a schnitzel or even chicken nuggets - by dipping in the sauce.
The coating is interesting since it uses potato starch. Many of the authentic Chinese recipes I use have a technique called "valveting" which uses corn starch and there are even recipes that use corn starch as the coating because it gives it a very specific lovely texture. So swapping the corn starch for potato starch would have similar results.
