In a nutshell

Many of the dietary approaches that have been used to improve glucose control in type 2 diabetes involve variations in one or more of CHO, protein and fat.

Extra protein does enhance insulin response short term, but we lack evidence of a long term benefit. Limited evidence suggests a similar benefit from monounsaturated fats.
