Protein will induce an insulin response, but as long as your pancreas is producing a decent amount of insulin there shouldn't be a rise in blood glucose:

About 50% IN THE ABSEBCE OF CARBS. If there are carbs in the meal it might not happen. I , as a very low carber inject for half my protein as if it were carbs
