I think that the amounts of lemon juice and the chicken broth are switched. I made this with 1/4c lemon juice and 1c chicken broth and it was still extremely sour.

Waay too much lemon called for in this recipe. Practically inedible. This would probably be a good dish if you used much less lemon in it.
