When we eat meat, it should be very lean so that we are taking in just the protein and not fat. chicken fits the bill perfectly.
When starting a new diet, chicken is the meat of choice. You can do so much with it and it provides us with the valuable protein that we need.
Although a lot of people think that chicken is very boring and find it rather dry, I've personally never found this as I tend to make a lot of different dishes and include various ingredients so that even if I had chicken every day it would always taste different.
By experimenting with different recipes you will make sure that you aren't going to get bored. This is the scourge of the dieter; when you eat so much you just can't eat any more and fall back into your old and unhealthy eating habits. There's nothing worse than dreading eating something that you used to thoroughly enjoy.
Here are a few ideas for chicken that both taste delicious and will ensure that the boredom never sets in. Theses recipes have the added bonus of being very healthy, so you can rest assured that although you have made the Chicken taste different, it is still good for you.
The simplest way to liven up Chicken is a sauce. As we are looking for a healthy option; I recommend a sauce which consists of orange, honey and raisins. If you like nuts, throw in few almonds too. The sweetness of the sauce should ensure that you won't want a dessert either.
One of my all time favorite herbs is tarragon, and when mixed into a low fat, healthy sauce to create a creamy chicken salad it is delicious. For those with a rich palate; mayonnaise or sour cream that is low in fat can be used. So what would have been a definite no no at one time can now be eaten and enjoyed.
If you, like me, are a fan of Asian cuisine, why not try your chicken with lime and coconut? Throw in some vegetables to if you want. Get out your wok and try some of the dishes that you normally buy as take out. Chicken really should never get boring.
