Jack Daniel's Grilled Chicken - Low Carb image

I have not tried this chicken. I'm posting this for safe keeping. I found this recipe at Obesity Help. It was posted by hear_me_roar. Many of you are thinking....wait.....how can this be low carb with pineapple juice? Easy you're simply basting with it...allowing the acids in it to penetrate the meat. the sugars aren't able to penetrate the meat and are only on there during caramelization, so most will drip right off. This is a low carb feel good kinda meal.... so give it a whirl... (the alcohol does burn off, so no carbs from those either....)
