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.

GRILLED OREGANO-DIJON CHICKEN

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts

1 tsp grated lemon zest

Place chicken between 2 sheets of parchment paper, pound to even thickness. In bowl, mix vinegar, mustard, oregano, garlic and zest. Season to taste with salt (use lightly) and pepper. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Cover and chill, flipping 2 to 3 times, 2 hours.

Prepare grill for medium direct-heat cooking. Remove chicken from marinade and coat with olive oil cooking spray. Grill, turning once, until no longer pink in the centers, approximately 4 to 5 minutes per side.
