hCG 1234 Recipe: Garlic Chicken



Garlic Chicken
100g chicken: 400g chicken - 4 servings
diced onion
3-5 cloves garlic - unpeeled & left whole
juice of half lemon
black pepper to taste
1/4 t chili powder
black pepper
  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Heat non-stick saucepan over MED.
  3. Add the onion. Stir constantly until tender. 5-10 mins.
  4. Transfer onions to glass baking dish.
  5. Place chicken atop onions.
  6. Place garlic around and on the chicken. (I used minced garlic) 
  7. Squeeze on lemon juice & sprinkle with pepper.
  8. Cover tightly either with lid or aluminum foil.
  9. Cook for 30-45 mins or until chicken is no longer pink.

Note: You don't have to eat the onions as your veggie (it's primarily for flavor). Just eat the chicken and add veggie of your choice. (After I fried onion and chicken, I tossed 2 cups of broccoli and 1 tomato in skillet, after tossing veggies around a little, I then added a dash of water to make light sauce to sauté the veggies in. Then, I placed it all on top of the lemon and garlic.)
