1/4 C. butter, melted
6 boneless chicken breasts
6 oz goat cheese with herbs
1/2 C sesame seeds
1 tsp. extra virgin olive oil

Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
Roasted red bell peppers (a 7oz jar)

1 pkg. stevia
1/4 tsp salt
pinch of cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp sour cream

Heat oven to 425. Spray rectangular pan 13x9x2 with cooking spray. Place melted butter in large, shallow bowl.

Cut a horizontal slit in each chicken breast making a pocket and add the cheese. Dip each breast into the butter and sprinkle both sides with sesame seed. Cook chicken in a skillet with heated oil until brown on both sides. Place chicken breasts in rectangular pan and drizzle with any remaining butter. Bake uncovered 15-20 minutes until chicken is no longer pink in center.

To make the red pepper sauce, place all ingredients except sour cream into a mini food processor or blender. Cover and process until smooth. Heat mixture in 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until hot; remove from heat and stir in sour cream.

Phase 2 recipe

Serve these two recipes together for a tasty meal or mix and match them with other recipes to create a new dish! This recipe is designed for phase 2 but can be adjusted for phase 3.

Grilled Skirt Steak/Flank Steak

100 grams or 3.5 oz of Skirt Steak

Seasoning salt/other spices

Dry the meat very well before grilling (to get a nice brown crust) and because the steak is relatively thin, you’ll need to cook it uncovered and over very high heat. A couple of minutes per side should be sufficient for medium rare.

Roasted Asparagus

8-10 Stalks asparagus spears

1/2 Red onion, thinly sliced

1 Tbs MCT oil ( if you have it) this replaces Olive Oil

Fresh garlic

Salt and pepper to taste

Juice of one lemon

Preheat oven to 500* Snap off tough cut ends of asparagus. Place asparagus on a foil lined baking sheet. Drizzle with MTC oil , garlic and spices. Toss gently. Add red onions on top for a bit more flavor and squeeze desired amount of lemon juice. Bake for 8-12 minutes ( larger stalks take longer) or until roasted.
