HCG Chicken Cacciatore

How about another Phase 2 Chicken Recipe?

Yesterday I gave you a great recipe for - HCG Oriental Lettuce Wraps. Today, I have another delicious Phase 2 recipe for all of you. I think this one will be a big hit, especially if you like chicken...

HCG Chicken Cacciatore

Here's what you'll need...
  • 2 teaspoons - Sea Salt
  • 1 teaspoon - Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 large - Chopped Red Bell Pepper
  • 1 Diced Onion
  • 3 Finely Chopped Garlic Cloves
  • 1 1/2 cup - Chicken Broth
  • 1 28 ounce can - Diced Tomatoes (add juice from can)
  • 3 tablespoons - Drained Capers
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons - Dried Oregano Leaves
  • 1/4 cup - Finely Chopped Basil Leaves
  • Crushed Grissini Breadsticks/Melba Toast

Preparation: Sprinkle the chicken pieces with 1 teaspoon of both salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken pieces in the crushed grissini to coat lightly.

Cooking Directions: In a large sauce pan, heat up the Chicken Broth on medium-high. Sauté chicken pieces in the broth until brown - about 5 minutes per side. Add more broth as needed.

Then, remove the chicken after it's done cooking but do not drain anything from the pan. Now add the bell pepper, onion and garlic to the same pan and sauté over medium heat until the onion is tender - about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the remaining broth and simmer for about 3 minutes. Next, add the tomatoes with juice, broth, capers and oregano.

After that, return the chicken pieces to the pan, turning them to coat in the sauce. Bring the sauce to a simmer. Continue simmering on medium-low heat until the chicken is just cooked all the way through, then remove. If necessary, boil the left-over sauce until it thickens slightly - about 3 minutes.

To Serve: Drizzle sauce over the chicken, then sprinkle with basil and serve.

Cheese On The HCG Diet - Is It Allowed?

Is cheese one of the items on the HCG 500 Calorie Diet Menu? Anyone who has read the HCG Diet Protocol knows that there are a lot of different rules to follow. On top of it all, you have to remember which foods you can and cannot eat. However, what people usually remember more than anything is that list of foods you can have is much smaller than the foods that you can't. Still, it can be quite a task to memorize that list in such a short period of time. I guess this is why people always ask my wife and I which foods are allowed during Phase 2 of the HCG Weight Loss Diet - One of the more common foods we are asked about is cheese. Now I love cheese probably more than the average person, so I can definitely understand why people are hoping and praying that it's listed on the HCG Diet Menu. And this brings us to the question we are here to answer... Can You Have Cheese On The HCG 500 Calorie Diet? I think deep down inside most of you already knew that the answer ...

How The Hypothalamus Works

What the Hypothalamus Gland does and why it's so important to fix it... The Hypothalamus Gland is located directly below the Thalamus which is at the center of the brain.

HCG Diet Dangers - Are there any? And if so, what are they? So what are the dangers associate with the HCG Diet? If you were to Google the term " HCG Diet Dangers ", you would get a bunch of sites trying to sell you something related to the HCG Diet. A lot of the websites that you will run into trying to find the answer to this question, are nothing more than marketers using fear tactics to get you to buy their product. So try not to get pulled in by this sort of thing. The truth is there are some HCG Diet Dangers, but they're probably not as bad as you think. In fact, some of them are human errors that make this method of weight loss the most dangerous. I'm talking about things like getting an infection from not cleaning your syringe. While getting an infection from a syringe is a danger that is associated with the HCG Diet, it is a mistake that a human makes that causes it. Therefore, the danger can be eliminated if you can only remember to use alcohol pads...
