This one is not real clean because of the butter but it sure looks wonderful. This came from Incredible Recipes


All you need to do is :

Melt a stick of butter in the pan.
Line the baking sheet with aluminum foil
Slice one lemon and layer it on top of the butter. Put down fresh shrimp, then sprinkle one pack of dried Italian seasoning.

Chicken & Shirataki Noodle Soup


Another great recipe from Clean Living Recipes. If you can't find the Shirataki noodles you could substitute no yolks egg noodles. Just sounds so good on a cold winter day.

 

CHICKEN AND SHIRATAKI NOODLE SOUP
Servings: 6

10 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (homemade or store bought)
2 cups shredded carrots
1 large stalk celery, coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons minced garlic
Three 8-ounce packages fettucine-style shirataki noodles, drained and well rinsed
4 cups shredded cooked skinless chicken breast (about 1 pound)
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Salt and ground black pepper, to taste

In a Dutch oven over medium heat, bring the broth to a boil. Add the carrots, celery, ginger and garlic. Cook, uncovered, until the vegetables are tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.


Add the shirataki and chicken, then simmer until the noodles are just hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the dill and lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper.
