Ingredients:
16 oz chicken thighs or breast, skinned and deboned
2 tbsp olive oil
1 shallot, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chop'd
1/2 green bell pepper, finely chopped
1 tbsp lemon juice
6 oz portobella mushrooms, cut into 1 chunks
1/4 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup wine
1 tbsp tarragon, fresh chopped
1 tbsp lovage, fresh chopped
1 salt & pepper to taste
1 tbsp arrowroot dissolved in wine
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375F.
Divide chicken into 4 equal portions. Lightly salt and sear on both
sides in an oven proofed saut pan. Remove from pan and set aside.
Saut mushrooms lightly for 1-2 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
Add shallots and garlic and saut for 1 minute. Add green pepper and
saut for 1-2 minutes. Deglaze pan by adding 1/4 c red, white or ros
wine (I personally prefer a ros with chicken). Allow to reduce by
1/2... add chicken stock and herbs. Return chicken to pan and place
in oven. After 10 minutes add portabella mushrooms on top. Cook
another 5-10 minutes or until done.
Remove chicken to serving platter or plates leaving mushrooms behind.
Add arrowroot dissolved in wine to thicken sauce. Add salt & pepper
to taste. Spoon over chicken and serve.

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.
