Zone diet is the latest nutrition strategy that promises to improve  health, weight and athletic performance with correct ratio of carbohydrate to protein to fat intake. The  basis for Zone Diet  follows a formula of 40% carbs , 30% protein and 30% fats created by Barry Sears PhD. According to Dr Sears, this dietary regimen results in a greater delivery of oxygen to the working muscles, a condition known as "The Zone", where athletes perform better, mental focus is enhanced, and life is generally a better place

Country Chicken - The Zone Diet Recipes

Ingredients:
2 whole chicken breasts with bones, skinned and quartered
unbleached flour (for dredging)
3 cups chicken stock
2 gloves garlic
15 oz jar pearl onions, drained
2 containers of white mushrooms, cleaned and quartered
28 oz can stewed tomatoes, including juice
1 1/2 Tbs olive oil
1 tsp thyme
1/4 cup parsley
1 Tbs soy sauce
2 bay leaves
pepper to taste

Directions:

Lightly dredge the chicken in the flour. Heat olive oil in a heavy pot. Brown the chicken, adding stock as necessary. Once browned, remove chicken to a plate.
In the same pot, sauté the garlic and onions in remaining stock. Scrape up the flour from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. This will form a gravy with the next ingredients.
Add the mushrooms and sauté for a few minutes until the wilt. Add tomatoes, breaking them apart with your hands as they go into the pot. Return the chicken to the pot, add remaining ingredients, and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.
