Low Carb Recipe for Chicken Breasts with Lime

Taking the five minutes to marinate this chicken in the morning or the night before, makes a quick and delicious chicken for lunch or dinner, that is amazingly moist, with a hint of lime and ginger flavor. Well worth the time and effort!

1 lime
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp ginger
5 drops of stevia or 1 tbsp sugar substitute
2 chicken breasts (3/4 lbs total)
pepper to taste

Place lime in microwave for 20-30 second (helps with the juicing process). Cut in half, and squeeze juice from lime into a ziplock bag.

Combine in the ziplock bag the following: soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sweetener. Place chicken breasts into the bag and coat well. Place in fridge and marinate at least 3 hours. (or overnight)

When ready to cook, take chicken out of marinate and cook until juices are clear. Marinate can be used for only the first few minutes to brush on the chicken, then must be discarded. (To insure that is it cooked well, and is not cross contaminating the chicken)

Serve.

Low Carb Recipe for Almond Coated Chicken

This low carb recipe for almond coated chicken was so good, my kids all asked for seconds! The crunchy coating was something different, but still delicious.

As you can see from the picture, we left our nuts a little on the coarse side. If you want a finer coating, just chop your nuts smaller.

4 chicken breasts ( approx 4oz each)
1 cup almonds
2/3 cup Parmesan Cheese
1/4 tsp pepper
3 tbsp flour
2 Eggs

Cut each chicken breast in half. Place the half a breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or zip lock bag, and hit with a heavy rolling pin until breast is about 1/2 inch thick.

Place almonds in a blender, and chop until nuts are coarsely ground. Mix with Parmesan cheese, and pepper. Place in a shallow plate.

In another shallow plate place flour.

In a third shallow dish, mix the eggs.

Take each chicken breast, and dip into flour, eggs, and then the nut mixture. Place nut coated chicken onto a baking sheet. Cook in oven at 350F for 45 minutes.

Serve.

Low Carb Recipe for Chicken Salad

Low Carb Recipe for Chicken Salad

With so many different low carb diets, different peoples likes and dislikes, and so many recipes that have been created, or have yet to be created, it is hard to find something everyone can enjoy. I hope that this chicken salad will be one you enjoy as much as we do.

I recommend using Dijon mustard, and not substituting with a regular mustard. It adds that hint of flavor that makes this salad something special.

1/2 cup celery, chopped
1/2 cup mayo
4 tablespoons relish
2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
pinch black pepper
4 cups chicken, cooked, and cut into bite size pieces
Salad Greens

Mix well the first 5 ingredients into a large bowl. Then add the chicken. Cover the bowl and place in the fridge for later.

Serve over salad greens.
