Broiled Chicken Oregano@ *** Bgmb90b Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
4 chicken breast
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup olive oil
1 salt & pepper to taste
1/3 cup lemon juice
3 tbsp oregano, fresh or 1 t dried
Recipe Preparation
Several hours before serving-or the day before, if time allows, rub
the chicken pieces pieces with the garlic and place them in a deep
china or earthenware bowl. Combine marinade ingredients and the
garlic clove and pour over chicken. Cover the bowl and refrigerate
the chicken. Turn chicken pieces occasionally. When ready to cook,
preheat the broiler to its highest setting. Arrange the chicken
pieces on the broiler rack and baste with a little of the melted
butter mixture. (Reserve part of the basting mixture to serve over
the chicken when served.) Broil the chicken 3-4 inches from the heat
for 5-8 minutes per side, basting often. Chicken is done when juices
run clear when pierced with a sharp knife. Remove to serving platter,
pour reserved basting mixture over the chicken breasts and serve
immediately. This is also good done on a BBQ.

Food Tips of the Week
A few tips on healthy eatingIn planning a diet, the important thing is to also endeavour to restrict your ingestion of refined carbohydrates, salt and fats.
Some low carb diet guidlines:
* Food labels can be misleading Watch out for sales blurb that boasts 'low carb' - check the nutritional information on the back of the product. Quite a few are only marginally decreased and in some instances still more than a competitors standard brand. In addition, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - often the carbs are identical.
* You can create really good smoothies with reduced carbohydrate yogurt. Ok, well, its not technically cooking, but if you really want smoothies you can make them with low carb yogurt and fruit. Obviously, you will need to ensure you use only fruit that is low in carbohydrates and use the whole fruit as the fiber will help.
