    I tweaked this a little because it was made last minute, and all of the ingredients were not on hand, and every one loved the lemon sauce ( the part I tweaked !

    I made this dish with my own twist on it. I used lemon juice but not the lemon to cut the tartness and it worked. I am not a fan of olives and I left those out as well. It was very simple and easy to make. I paired it with angel hair pasta and sauteed apples. It was amazing. Both my daughter and husband are picky eaters but they both begged for seconds. Do try this recipe. You will not be disappointed.

    I had to save this dish by sprinkling about 1/4 tsp of white sugar (baking sugar. Before I did that, my mouth was puckering...almost inedible. The sugar really helped.

    My husband hates chicken and I have tried hundreds of recipes to get him to eat it without a great deal of success. When I made this recipe he couldn;t stop raving about it and asked for it again a few days later. The lemon, garlic and olives all complimented each other and the spinach was wonderful. I have already given this recipe to a number of friends and can't wait for their reactions when they make it. This one will definetly go into my recipe box!

    This is the best lemon chicken I ever had. The recipe is a little more involved than I'm used to preparing, but it came out so good I plan to make it a lot.

    I have made this dish several times, always with a request for the recipe. This dish is my go to recipe when I don't have a lot of time but want to serve a nice dinner for my family. The spinach is a wonderful complement with the lemon chicken. I serve with rice and salad and you have a terrific meal all within 45 minutes.

    This is a great dish don't be scared off by the comments of the garlic turning blue. It is a reaction between the garlics sulfur content with some metals(copper,Iron, tin, and aluminum and the acid in the lemons combined. You will not have this problem if you use a nonreactive pan (stainless steel, glass,or ceramic. If your garlic turns blue or sometimes green it is still safe to eat but your dish may also have a metallic taste which is why some did not like the dish.

    This was really easy to make (even w/ a fussy baby on my hip - lol! I added some seasoning to my flour (couldn't see how you should just use PLAIN flour = boring!, and will probably skip the green olives next time (or try kalamata instead, but over all, the flavors fused quite nicely together ... my husband went back for thirds!
