Extreme Fat Smash Chicken - Two Ways

Day three and I'm doing pretty well on the Celebrity Fit Club plan. I'm doing Dr. Ian K. Smith's Extreme Fat Smash Diet.

I'm not feeling deprived at all because I'm eating every three hours or so and the first week's diet is a good mix of veggies, fruits, and low fat protein. I'm enjoying the recipes, even the chicken ones which I thought would be boring. But it's surprising how good a grilled or baked chicken breast is with just a few simple seasonings.

Either recipe would be great when you want to make something easy and healthy just for youself - and you have a bunch of frozen chicken breasts on hand. Serve with steamed veggies - asparagus was especially good with the grilled chicken breast since the lemon juice and garlic worked well with it, too.
