Ingredients:
8 whole chicken breasts, split
1/2 cup olive or vegetable oil
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tsp fresh italian parsley, chopped
1 tsp dried leaf oregano, crumbled
1 salt
1 pepper
1/8 tsp crushed red-pepper flakes (or more)
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 fresh spinach leaves, steamed
1 hot cooked rice
1 red bell pepper strips
Instructions:
Mix oil, wine, garlic, parsley, oregano, salt and pepper (to taste).
Marinate chicken in a shallow pan, covered, for several hours or
overnight. Remove chicken and reserve marinade. Place breasts, skin-
side up in 1 or 2 roasting pans; do not crowd. Brush with part of
reserved marinade. Bake in 375 F oven, basting occasionally with
marinade, for 40 minutes until skin is crisp. Sprinkle part of
Parmesan over the chicken and return to oven just until Parmesan
begins to turn golden. Line a warm platter with steamed spinach
leaves, then with rice. Arrange chicken breasts on top and sprinkle
with remaining Parmesan cheese. Garnish with red pepper strips.
(NOTE: Chicken breasts can be grilled about 4 inches from coals for
20 minutes, turning and basting with marinade until chicken is
golden.)
Makes 8 servings.

Chicken is ideal
for weight loss
and dieting
Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.
Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
