COMPANY DISH THAT'S EASY TO MAKE OFTEN FOR THE FAMILY. Sprinkle the
chicken pieces lightly with salt and spread them in a single layer in
a broiling pan. Broil until the skin is light gold, about 10 minutes
on each side. This is an effortless low-calorie way to brown chicken.
Place the chicken pieces in a large casserole. Drain the cherries and
save the syrup. Add 1/2 cup sherry to the syrup and add enough orange
juice to make 2 1/4 cups of liquid. Stir the lemon rind into the
liquid and pour over the chicken. Bring to a boil and simmer covered

the dish is being prepared a day ahead. Remove the chicken and
refrigerate the chicken and cooking liquid separately overnight. Skim
off the congealed fat from the surface of the liquid. Return the
chicken to the liquid and reheat. Stir in the cherries. Mix the
cornstarch and 3 Tablespoons orange juice together and stir slowly
into the cooking liquid. Continue cooking a few minutes until the
sauce thickens. Serve with rice. YIELD: 4 to 6 servings. SOURCE: The

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss program primarily advocated by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t expressly a fat reduction diet, although many zone diet followers believe that they actually manage to lose weight by following the zone diet. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to gain control of the levels of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a result puts the body in a state of balance which is far more wholesome than it normally is, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone". Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is perfectly balanced and, because of this, does not need to build up stores of fat. The most interesting process of the zone system is to control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to dose yourself with large amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6. Foods containing allyl sulfides ( includes pickled shallots, chives and welsh onion) The onion and garlic range of vegetables is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer. Even though there is very little scientific proof at hand, allyl sulfides are also thought to reduce symptoms with blood circulation, high blood pressure and diabetes. Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so you should add them to your diet. |
