Ginger Chicken Stir Fry
It’s January and I am trying to eat a bit better than I did for half of December, to lose a few pounds obviously but also to help keep me healthy as we need all the goodness we can get right now! This started out as a standard stir fry but actually tasted like something …
Chicken with Tomatoes and Capers
I have to share this one for many reasons, firstly and most importantly, it is REALLY tasty. It is also very easy, cheap, low carb and low calorie. You could make this as a pasta dish if you wanted to bulk it up a bit or serve with some garlic bread but I was trying …
Garlic and Chilli Crispy Chicken
This is a chicken take on a cauliflower dish I had at Lily’s restaurant recently called Gobi Manchurian. I thought it would be nice with crispy chicken too AND there is way too much cauliflower on the blog. It is quite simple to make the sauce as you are using things you probably have in …
Chicken Curry with Black Pepper
Another week another curry! I just can’t get enough. This is really simple and effective and uses things you probably already have in your cupboards so can be rustled up easily for a midweek meal. I used chicken thighs on the bone for this but you could use them without the bone if you …
Kung Pao Chicken
It’s a miracle this meal happened considering the delicate state I was in yesterday after way too much wine at a wedding the day before but I wanted to have a chinese meal without all the takeaway calories so this was the only way! It is surprisingly quick and simple to make as long as …
Chicken and Aubergine Stew with Capers and Pine Nuts
Jamie Oliver has a new show, pitched just before winter so his book can come out for Christmas probably! ( Cynical I know..) I fast forwarded through all his chat and making up of stupid words and sounds ( He takes onomatopoeia to a whole new level.) then, right at the end saw …
Singapore noodles with cauliflower and King Prawn
A healthy and quick mid week tea. Not technically one of mine but something I will definitely make again with different ingredients! Original recipe was found on BBC food but they use chicken alongside the prawns. You could always do that too or substitute the prawns for chicken if you prefer. For a Veggie version …
Chicken and Chorizo bake with Red Peppers and Sweet Potato.
I have made this a couple of times now from one of Jamie Oliver’s books but have tweaked it to make it better 😉 It needed more chorizo for a start! It’s a easy but tasty midweek tea and can be prepared in advance so handy for after a busy day at work. Ingredients Serves …
Chicken Shawarma Kebab with salad and sauce!
I love junk food and love a good kebab but you can easily make your own and not feel as guilty! I made a batch of these on New Years Eve and people have been asking for the recipe ever since. The naan breads I use look cheap and cheerful but these are the …
Chilli and Chicken Ramen
I have been eating a lot of soup recently to try and keep the pounds off but quite frankly – ITS BORING!! It doesn’t even feel like eating so I had a think about how I could make it more interested and remembered a Ramen I had once at Wagamama. I looked at a few …
