Dukan Friendly BBQ Chicken
This recipe is adapted from my favourite BBQ Chicken recipe to make it Dukan Diet friendly – it’s quick and easy to do, creates minimal washing up and tastes great. I’m on the hunt for a bottle of liquid smoke as I feel it needs a bit more smokiness. Of course if you don’t mind the heat, you can add more smoked paprika!
Ingredients:
- 1 tray of boneless, skinless chicken thighs
For the BBQ sauce:
- 3 tbsp tomato puree
- 2 tbsp vinegar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 4 tbsp water
- 3-4 heaped tbsp sweetener (or to taste)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp mustard powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
- Dash of chili powder (optional)
- 5 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- Reserve for later – 1 tsp cornflower
Preheat the oven to 260C
- Line a roasting tin with aluminium foil, taking it right over the lip of the tin
- Combine all the sauce ingredients except the cornflower
- Place the chicken portions in the tin, cover with sauce and toss carefully to avoid piercing the foil
- Seal the tin tightly with another piece of foil
- Place in oven for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 180C for 1 hour
- When cooked, remove chicken from tin and if sauce isn’t thick enough, pour into a saucepan. Blend the cornflower with a little water, add to the sauce and boil until the sauce has thickened. Pour over chicken and serve
