Attack Phase - Oven Grilled Barbecue Chicken

Dukan Diet Day 2 I have started with a smile - staggering 1.9kg melted away just in one day!!!!!!!!!! ;)

Had grilled some chicken for New Years Eve celebration and still had some left for next day.

Its a shot of my breakfast - Fried Egg and Grilled Skinless Chicken Thigh

I love this part of chicken the most. It is very moist, tender and cost so much cheaper than chicken breasts.
You can get it at the butchers or any food supermarket at a very reasonable price. Just don't forget to skin it and remove all excess fat before cooking.

Oven Grilled Barbecue Chicken

1 kg Skinless chicken thighs
Chicken/Berbecue or any other your favourite seasoning
1 tbs barbecue sauce (aim for sugar free or low sugar sauces)

How to:

• Remove the skin and any excess fat form the chicken tights an put in a bowl
• Add seasoning of your choice (I will be posting an article  about my favourite seasoning soon) and rub the chicken with it well.
• Add a table spoon of a barbecue sauce and rub it in
• If you not in a hurry you can leave it to marinate for at least 30 minutes or even longer. If you d
• Set your oven grill on a lowest or medium heat (it varies by appliances) and pop the chicken in. Turn it over couple of times while cooking to prevent it from burning. 

Tips:

• If you in a hurry, you don't have to leave it to marinate - it taste good if its cooked right away.
• Chicken is cooked, when the meat looks tender, but not too firm. If you use meat thermometer - aim for 170°F. If you still unsure, cut one of the thighs open to check inside. Remember - 'pink colour meat' method here is not the best as this part the chicken part contains a vein that can remain red or pinkish through all cooking process.
• You can cook a large quantity and leave it for later. It taste good when its cold too.
• It goes well with Dijon mustard, horse radish, natural yoghurt etc.

Idea!

Try using different spices, different seasoning, different condiments to make a recipe of your own. 

Enjoy!
