Diabetic Thursday
It's Diabetic Thursday. Today's post was originally posted on January 10, 2017 on my diabetic blog. It includes an article about Metformin, as well six diabetic recipes.
Are you taking Metformin, or know someone who is? According to an article in Diabetes Self-Management, "humble metformin may well be the closest thing we have to a miracle drug." It packs probably the biggest blood-glucose-lowering punch of any diabetes drug on the market," helps to lower one's HbA1c levels by up to 1.5%, protects your heart, and may even help protect you from some forms of cancer. Pretty impressive!
To read this article ("Metformin: The Unauthorized Biography"), click here. Tomorrow (actually January 11, 2017), I'll post Diabetes Self-Management's article on Metformin's side effect.
And now, it's time for today's six recipes, all centered around chicken. There was a time during the twentieth century when chicken was relegated to Sunday dinner. Not any more. It's popular for an anytime meal, enough so that even burger places frequently offer chicken sandwiches. These six recipes, including Chicken Cordon Bleu and Tandoori Chicken Skewers with Blueberry-Fig Sauce, are good enough to make you forget about the fast food places. Enjoy!
BAKED CHICKEN PARMESAN
Servings: 6
Find this recipe at: http://diabeticgourmet.com/recipes/html/228.shtml

4 slices whole-wheat bread

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly spray a rectangular baking sheet and slightly smaller cooling rack with vegetable oil spray. Put rack on baking sheet. Set aside.
In a food processor or blender, process bread into fine crumbs. Pour into a shallow bowl. Stir Parmesan, parsley, paprika, garlic powder, and thyme into crumbs.
Pour buttermilk into a shallow bowl.
Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Dip chicken into buttermilk, shake off excess liquid, dredge in crumbs, and shake off excess crumbs. Put chicken on cooling rack. Spray each breast with vegetable oil spray.

BAKED CHICKEN WITH 40 CLOVES OF GARLIC
See author's note after directions.
Serves: 4
Source: Mediterranean Light
Find this recipe at: http://diabeticgourmet.com/recipes/html/304.shtml
Ingredients
1 (3-or-4 pound) chicken, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
40 large, meaty garlic cloves, unpeeled
1-3/4 cups dry white wine
4 thyme sprigs or 1/4 teaspoon dried
8 garlic croutons
2 tablespoons Cognac
Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the skin from the chicken pieces.
Heat the oil over medium heat in a heavy-bottomed flameproof casserole wide enough to accommodate the chicken in a single layer. Add the chicken, and salt and pepper lightly. Saute for 5 minutes, then turn over and saute another 5 minutes. If the bottom of the pan scorches a little, don't worry, it won't affect the flavor of the dish. Remove the chicken pieces from the pot.
Add the garlic and saute, stirring, for 3 to 5 minutes, until beginning to brown. Again, don't worry about scorching. Spread the cloves in a single layer and return the chicken pieces to the pot. Add the wine, thyme, and rosemary and cover tightly.
Place the casserole in the oven and bake 45 minutes. Meanwhile, make the garlic croutons.
After 45 minutes, check the chicken. It should be tender and fragrant. If it isn't quite cooked through or very tender, bake another 15 minutes.
Remove the casserole from the oven. Heat the Cognac in a small saucepan and light with a match. Pour over the chicken and shake the casserole until the flames die down. Taste the sauce in the pot, adjust seasonings, and sprinkle with parsley.
To serve, place a couple of croutons on each plate, a piece of chicken or two, topped with some of the sauce in the pan, and several garlic cloves, which your guests should squeeze out onto the croutons.
Note: This is a lusty, beautiful dish. The chicken becomes succulent and ever so fragrant as it bakes slowly in white wine with 40 unpeeled cloves of garlic. The garlic becomes mild, sweet, and soft as it cooks, and you eat it like butter on croutons. Most authentic French versions of this dish include more olive oil than mine, as well as some butter, but the results here are heavenly. I've tried various methods for this dish. Sometimes the chicken is cooked in an uncovered pan on top of the stove, but because we remove the skin here and use very little fat, the dish comes out best when the chicken is simmered in the oven in a closed pot.

Add remaining oil to pan. Add onion to skillet and saute for 3 minutes or until translucent. Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds. Add cumin, coriander, cocoa powder and chili powder, stirring to coat onions well. Add tomatoes, almonds, raisins, broth and salt. Bring to boil then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

After 45 minutes, check the chicken. It should be tender and fragrant. If it isn't quite cooked through or very tender, bake another 15 minutes.
Remove the casserole from the oven. Heat the Cognac in a small saucepan and light with a match. Pour over the chicken and shake the casserole until the flames die down. Taste the sauce in the pot, adjust seasonings, and sprinkle with parsley.
To serve, place a couple of croutons on each plate, a piece of chicken or two, topped with some of the sauce in the pan, and several garlic cloves, which your guests should squeeze out onto the croutons.
Note: This is a lusty, beautiful dish. The chicken becomes succulent and ever so fragrant as it bakes slowly in white wine with 40 unpeeled cloves of garlic. The garlic becomes mild, sweet, and soft as it cooks, and you eat it like butter on croutons. Most authentic French versions of this dish include more olive oil than mine, as well as some butter, but the results here are heavenly. I've tried various methods for this dish. Sometimes the chicken is cooked in an uncovered pan on top of the stove, but because we remove the skin here and use very little fat, the dish comes out best when the chicken is simmered in the oven in a closed pot.
