Ingredients:
2 tbsp olive oil
1 pieces
2 cup broccoli florets,small
1 ricotta cheese, reduced fat
1 salt and pepper
1 tbsp chives or scallions,fresh- minced
2 chicken breast halves, boned
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1 cup chicken broth
2 tbsp dijon mustard, country style
1 tbsp tarragon or parsley, fresh- minced
Instructions:
Here is a new twist on the old standby....something different, but
truly delicious! Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add
chicken and onion; sauté 2 to 3 minutes until chicken turns white.
Add broccoli and broth; simmer, covered, until chicken is cooked
through, 5 minutes. Transfer chicken and broccoli to bowl using
slotted spoon; set aside and cover to keep warm. Cook down pan juices
until 1/4 cup remains. In food processor or blender, process rickety
with mustard until smooth. Add pan juices, season to taste with salt
and pepper and stir in tarragon and chives. Process until well mixed.
Divide sauce between 4 plates. Spoon chicken over sauce and sprinkle
with herbs. Serve with rice or pasta.
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.
When chickens quit quarreling over their food they often find that there is enough for all of them. I wonder if it might not be the same
with the human race.
