hCG Diet Chicken Recipes: Lemon Chicken Soup

You know that saying that everything tastes like chicken? Preparing hCG diet chicken recipes is a great place to take advantage of that saying. In this recipe, you get a little East meets West. With the greens from down South in the United States and an exotic spice, mix up a new take on Lemon Chicken Soup.

Ingredients

100 grams chicken
Juice of 1 Lemon
Zest of 1 Lemon
Mustard Greens
Liquid Smoke
¼ t Fenugreek
¼ t Cumin powder
2 c Chicken Broth
Salt and Pepper

Directions:

Lightly salt and pepper both sides of the chicken. Saute in a pan until the juices run clear. Remove the chicken and allow to rest. Deglaze the pan with the lemon juices, releasing all the browned-on bits of chicken for extra flavor and color.

Add the broth and the spices. Bring to a simmer. Cook until the Fenugreek begins to soften. Add the mustard greens. Stew the greens in the broth until they are done to your liking.

Slice the chicken if desired. Return to the pan and stir to heat. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and no more than three drops liquid smoke. You can of course add more smoke, just know the flavor builds up quickly: the line between just right and too much is easy to cross.

Mustard greens are a great way to get variety in your meal plans. Greens meet the superfood criteria. When used in this hCG diet chicken recipe, you get extra nutirion and fiber. The greens, however, are very spicy raw and much better cooked.

You may be unfamiliar with Fenugreek. You can be sure to find this spice in an Indian market. It’s also sold at herbal shops. The herb is currently very popular for showing benefits to burn fat and build muscle. These small, beige colored squares bring power to hCG diet chicken recipes and your weight loss goals.
