Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of the margarine in another small heavy saucepan over moderate heat.
Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes.
Whisk in the hot chicken broth and the lemon juice; bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.
