Ingredients:
3 lb chicken, cut-up
1 dash salt
1 dash black pepper
BASTING SAUCE
2 tbsp oil or melted butter
3/4 cup tomato ketchup
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp dried basil leaves
Instructions:
Cut off excess fat from chicken pieces. Loosen skin away from the
meat (this helps the basting sauce to reach the meat underneath).
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Mix together and blend well
the oil, tomato ketchup, lemon juice, the garlic and basil. Place
chicken pieces on rack. Brush both sides with basting sauce. Grill
chicken for 12 to 15 minutes on one side, brushing with basting sauce
from time to time. Turn chicken over. Brush again with sauce. Grill
chicken for another 12 to 15 minutes or until chicken is done and
juices run clear when pierced with a fork. Serve immediately with
crusty bread and a tossed green salad, tomatoes, and crispy baked
potato wedges.
Servings: 4
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.
"We didn't starve, but we didn't eat chicken unless we were sick, or the chicken was." Bernard Malamud (1914-1986)
