Work Out Time

Today is my first day of exercise since I have had since having baby H. Wow! I never expected how hard even simple routines would be. While baby H slept I started off with a simple yoga routine that you use to be a piece of cake for me and today all I felt was pain and no flexibility. Next I did a ten minute cardio workout with lots of jumping jacks and squats that had me way out of breath! I am so dissapointed at the level of fitness my body has dropped to. But I know I will improve over the months. I just have to keep swimming as they saying goes. I wish everyone the best of luck with their workout endeavors and I really hope you all keep them up!

Directions For A Healthy Chicken Teriyaki


Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed with a garlic press or minced
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 pounds skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds

Combine the soy sauce, sugar, sherry, vinegar, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes and stir until the sugar dissolves. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag and add the chicken. Seal the bag and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator, turning once, for 1 hour. The chicken can be marinated for up to 4 hours.

Heat the broiler to high. Arrange the chicken on a broiler pan skin side down and broil until brown and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Flip the chicken and broil until almost cooked through, about 8 minutes longer. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and cook until the seeds turn golden brown and the chicken is done, 1 to 2 minutes longer.


Make some Brown rice with this meal and throw in kale as well for a healthy dinner!
