By the time I got home from the grocery and talking with a friend, it was a bit late for me to cook the Milk Chicken, so I heated up some leftover shrimp stir fry that I had in the freezer from a few days ago and had that for dinner last night.
I made the Milk Chicken tonight and it is in the oven as I type. It smells so good too! I bought a huge pack of thighs instead of a whole chicken and I used half for this dish.
I grilled the other half to use in another dish later in the week, and for chicken n veggie rollups.
[Note to those who sent me a note wanting to make this. The lemon zest is going to cause the milk to separate some which makes a yummy sauce to put on polenta, potatoes etc. I've heard heavy cream won't separate, so if the idea of curds disturbs you, you may want to try that instead. Also, I use evaporated milk because I find it "cooks" better.]
