This is a favourite at our home. I've been making this dish for 10 years and we never get tired of it. I ate it yesterday and it went down quite well.
Ingredients
2 chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
6 cloves of garlic (more or less according to your taste)
1 to 2 table spoons of fresh rosemary (you can use dried as well - again, use more or less according to your taste)
Olive oil to coat pan to sear chicken
2 cups of unsweetened freshly squeezed orange juice (I used Tropicana but you could use freshly squeezed, it would be even better)
2 tea spoon fat free chicken stock
Instructions
Put oil in pan and heat pan over medium/high heat. Sear chicken breasts on all sides until golden brown. Don't cook thoroughly as it will continue to cook in the sauce. Set aside.
In the same pan, cook minced garlic and rosemary. Don't brown garlic.
When garlic is translucent, add 1/4 cup of the OJ. Scrape bottom of pan to detach all the brown bit attached.
Add remainder of OJ, chicken stock and chicken.
Cook until sauce has reduced and thicken a bit and the chicken is cooked.
Serve with broccoli (and rice if you can eat it).
Enjoy!
What's the deal with this recipe blog?
Having recently undergone gastric bypass surgery + being a very good (according to my friends and family) and creative cook, I thought I would share the recipes I come up with to accomodate my new small stomach and my somewhat fancy and demanding taste buds.
These recipes represent what I'm cooking day in day out as I try to come up with ideas heavy on protein and fresh produce yet light in fat and sugar, all the while without compromising on the most important: great taste.
