Ingredients:
1 stephen ceideburg
3 lb chicken, cut into 8 pieces, skin an, d fat removed, or:
8 skinless chicken breasts or thighs
1/3 cup tomato ketchup
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1 tbsp cider vinegar
1 tbsp unsulfured molasses
1 tsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp chinese chili paste with garlic
Instructions:
Precooking the chicken in the microwave or gently poaching it on the
stovetop before finishing it on the grill ensures that the meat is
cooked through but the sauce is not charred If you like a hotter
sauce, increase the amount of chili paste.
Arrange chicken pieces in a micro-proof dish, with the thickest parts
toward the outside of the dish. Cover with vented plastic wrap and
microwave at HIGH (100%) 8 to 10 minutes, or until tender, turning
pieces twice.
Alternatively, in a wide sauce-pan, cover chicken with cold water and
bring to a simmer, skimming off any froth. Simmer gently until
chicken is tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the grill or preheat the broiler. In a small bowl,
whisk together remaining ingredients.
With tongs, remove the chicken from the dish or sauce pan and brush
both sides generously with barbecue sauce. Grill over medium-high
heat or broil, basting with the barbecue sauce often, until the
chicken is glazed on the outside and no longer pink inside, about
5 minutes on each side.

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.
