Lemon, Garlic, Dill Chicken (Gluten Free, Low Calorie, Low Carb
This is an old "Go-To" recipe that I've been making since 1989! It's a family favorite, that I have adapted to our low carb lifestyle
Step 1 Recipe
I adapted this from a Betty Crocker recipe.
4 thin boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Pam non-stick cooking spray
1 C Chicken Broth OR white wine
1 Tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon jusice (about 1/2 of a lemon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon fresh dill finely chopped
1-2 cloves garlic minced
1/2 lemon thinly sliced

1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon fresh dill finely chopped
1-2 cloves garlic minced
1/2 lemon thinly sliced
Step 2 Brown Chicken
In a large skillet, spray Pam to prevent sticking. Heat the skillet on Medium High.
Brown the clhicken on both sides (about 4-5 minutes on each side)
While the chicken is browning Mix the other ingredients (EXCEPT for the lemon slices). Set it aside.

Step 5 Reduce the Sauce
Increase the temperature back to Medium High and cook until the sauce has reduced by half (about 4 minutes)
Step 6 Serve
At this point I USED to serve this over Angle Hair Pasta.
Now I serve it over MIRACLE NOODLES. This product has virtually no calories. It is Carb free, Soy free, and Gluten Free
This makes 4 servings at about 200 calories each (calculated for the chicken only)
Do not confuse these with tofu shirataki noodles. These are made from Glucomannan (Konjac)
If you cannot find them locally look on www.amazon.com or www.miraclenoodles.com
