You"Chicken thighs, a lemon, rice and garlic. Dinner for four, under 40 minutes."

Your agent

Three recipes use what you have, each rated 5.0 by at least 42 people. Million Dollar Chicken, Moroccan style, 35 min, 69 ratings: thighs and garlic simmered in salsa, honey, cumin and cinnamon, toasted almonds on top, served over rice. Bourbon Chicken, 25 min, 48 ratings. Lemon Rice Pilaf, 35 min, 42 ratings, as a side.

None of the chicken dishes use the lemon; it goes in the rice. Want one in full?

You"The Moroccan one. Full recipe."
