WELCOME TO DIABETIC ENJOYING FOOD

I have chosen this name for this blog because it truly states my story. I am a type II diabetic who most certainly enjoys food. When I was diagnosed with diabetes several years ago, my blood sugar level was over 400. With some oral medications, a lot of research and some trial and error, I have found that unlike my ancestors I truly can continue to enjoy food. I hope this blog will help you to also enjoy food and be healthy. Some recipes are my originals and some I have collected. Everyone reacts different to various foods. Check your blood sugar readings so you will know whether or not a recipe works for you! And feel free to take a recipe and adjust it to suit your needs.

QUICK AND EASY LEMON PEPPER CHICKEN BREASTS

 

2 tbsp lemon pepper seasoning blend (such as Mrs. Dash)

6 (1 1/2 lb total) boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/3 cup flour
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 medium lemon, juiced and zested
1 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 tsp Splenda brown sugar blend

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Combine the seasoning blend with the flour in a pie plate; combine thoroughly.  Coat the chicken pieces in the mixture.

Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet; add chicken and cook just until brown on both sides.  Transfer to a baking dish or pan.

Combine the lemon juice and zest, chicken broth, and Splenda together in a small bowl; pour over the chicken.

Bake 30-35 minutes at 375 degrees or until the chicken is cooked through.
