Tired of Chicken?

Sometimes, going on a diet can be a real torture, specially if we use the same ingredients all the time. We may even end up giving up, since the monotony tends to be quite overwhelming for most of us…

However, we can change this radically, using the same ingredient but in different ways. It does not necessarily mean that it will not help us move toward our goal, which is mainly achieving either a lean or shredded aspect.

How can you cook chicken?

Chicken is one of the most consumed types of meat. Here, I bring you some recipes to transform a tasteless and dull meal in a real “delicacy”.
