A Regal Recipe to Beat the Cold Snap

CORONATION CHICKEN LUNCHBOX 009

 

Lunchbox fare during the winter months can be problematic – soup, soup and yes a bit more soup! Here is something different – a favourite high-protein chicken dish (but adapted and improved for bariatrics) to serve with a microwaved sweet potato. I have tried some of the Carolina sweet potatoes that are ready-prepared for the microwave and been most impressed. Pop one in your lunchbox if you have a microwave at work and you have the makings of a pretty fine meal. The accompaniment, Coronation Chicken, was a favourite dish of mine pre-surgery – it was however high in fats and sugar. I have given this the bariatric makeover and it now weighs light enough for post-surgery eating. If you are going to serve it with a microwaved sweet potato then cook on FULL POWER for 6-8 minutes, depending upon size.
