How to Make Lemon Barbecued Chicken Diabetic Friendly
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, and 1 teaspoon dried oregano.
- Gradually whisk in 2 tablespoons lemon juice, then add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons chopped green onions. Mix well.
- Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or a combination of breasts and thighs totaling approximately 1.5 lbs) in a resealable bag or shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat (approximately 375°F).
- Remove chicken from marinade and discard the marinade. Place chicken on the preheated grill, skin-side down (if using skin-on chicken).
- Grill for 15-20 minutes for breast halves, turning every 5-7 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Grill thighs for 20-25 minutes, turning every 5-7 minutes, until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Serve immediately. Serving size: 1 breast half or 1 leg and 1 thigh.
