Looking for a simple, nutritious meal that’s weight loss surgery friendly? This one ticks all the boxes: high in protein, low in calories, and gentle on your stomach.

Simple Chicken Marinade (for 1 serve):
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp lemon juice
¼ tsp garlic (crushed)
Pinch of dried mixed herbs
Salt & pepper to taste

Marinate 100g chicken breast for 15–30 mins (or overnight if prepping ahead).

To cook:
Grill chicken on a non-stick pan for ~4–5 mins each side, until cooked through.

Serve with:
½ cup steamed veggies (e.g. broccoli, zucchini, carrot).
Optional: drizzle with lemon or a few drops of olive oil.

💡 Nutrition Tips for Post-Surgery:
- Eat protein first, chew thoroughly, and take your time.

- This meal is low in fat, high in protein, and gentle on the stomach.

- Adjust portion sizes as needed based on your post-op stage and dietitian's advice.
