Well friends I am the one that makes up most of the meals in this house & so trying to find RECIPES that both myself { being diabetic } & my husband { being the chorine } I am needing to find things that we both can enjoy and, that he can have without any problems & also have the kids enjoy too is REALLY HARD but here is one that I found that ALL OF US ENJOY & I do hope that you will enjoy as well !!
CAESAR SALAD DRESSING
3 CLOVES GARLIC
3 TBLSP. LEMON JUICE
3 TBLSP. OLIVE OIL
1 TBLSP. DIJON * STYLE MUSTARD
1/2 TSP. WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE
1 HARD BOILED EGG YOLK
DRESSING: In a blender container combine the 3 garlic cloves & lemon juice. Cover & blend until mixture is nearly smooth, stopping from time to time to scrape the sides as needed. Add oil, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, & cooked hard boiled egg yolk. Cover; blend until smooth. Place into a jar & place into the refrigerator until time to use.
TERIYAKI CHICKEN
SERVES 2
{ This recipe is really good as I prepare this chicken to go along with the Caesar salad dressing above & so it's really good }
3 TBLSP. SOY SAUCE
2 TBLSP. LIGHT BROWN SUGAR
1 TBLSP. CORN OIL
1/2 TSP. GROUND GINGER
1/2 TSP. GARLIC POWDER
1/8 TSP. BLACK PEPPER
2 BONELESS & SKINLESS CHICKEN BREAST
Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, oil, ginger, garlic, black pepper. Place into a screw top jar & shake up. Cut your chicken into strips or chunks. Then place into ZIP LOCK BAG & place this mixture over the chicken. Coat the chicken & then place into the refrigerator and let the marinade soak into the chicken for at least 3 hours or overnight for best results.
Now on the next day ... take chicken out of the marinade & place onto a cookie sheet { lined with foil & a little bit of cooking spray so the chicken will not stick } & place under the broiler on low heat & broil just until the chicken is done 5 minutes on both sides. { I usually go a little bit longer }. Once the chicken is done all the way remove from the oven & let cool.
While your CHICKEN is cooling tear up some lettuce & some torn * romaine lettuce * place into a large bowl. Now add your cooled TERIYAKI CHICKEN over the lettuce & then toss all up together & once tossed then add your dressing over the top & sprinkle with fresh grated Parmesan Cheese & toss again. If you can handle croutons then add them into the salad & toss again { with us I have croutons on the side for the kids & myself & we add our own salad }
* ROMAINE LETTUCE - We find this in big bags already torn up into pieces at Sams Club & it saves on time & it's really nice too.
So gang there is just something that we all enjoy in our family. Sometimes when I am wanting to make CHICKEN for dinner I will just make this up for my husband & he eats that with steamed broccoli as a veggie.
So, if you have questions ... give me a shout & I can help you out !!
