This recipe from Harley Pasternak's book, The 5-Factor World Diet, is quick to prepare and full of healthy ingredients – perfect for staving off holiday weight gain
Marinating chicken in lemon juice gives it a fresh flavour without adding extra calories
During the holiday party season it’s important to have some delicious, nutritious, low-calorie meals in your repertoire to balance all the cocktail-swigging, cookie-munching, and appie-devouring you may be partaking in.
This is one of those meals.
The recipe comes from the The 5-Factor World Diet, a book by Canadian fitness professional and LA-based trainer-to-the-stars, Harley Pasternak.
The book is an interesting read about healthy cuisines from other cultures with lots of great recipes that are healthy and incredibly easy to make – that’s the whole point behind Pasternak’s 5-factor approach.
I also have his books 5-Factor Fitness and The 5-Factor Diet, which have easy-to-follow workouts and more easy-to-follow recipes.
This is the second recipe I’ve tried from the The 5-Factor World Diet, the first was for tandoori chicken and lentils (which I added a few more ingredients, and calories, to).
