Serves 4

 What you Need:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, sliced into 1-inch cubes

 1 1/2 cups cornstarch

 1/2 teaspoon salt

 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

 3 cups peanut or vegetable oil for frying, plus 1 tablespoon for stir-frying

 8 dried whole red chilis, or substitute 1/4 teaspoon dried red chili flakes

 2 cloves garlic, minced

 1 teaspoon white sesame seeds, for garnish

 Scallions, green parts thinly sliced, for garnish

 

Marinade:

 1 tablespoons soy sauce

 1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine or dry sherry

 2 egg whites

 

Sauce:

 1/4 cup chicken stock, or substitute water

 1 tablespoon soy sauce

 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

 1 teaspoon hoisin sauce

 1 teaspoon chili paste

 1 teaspoon sesame oil

 1 tablespoon sugar

 1 teaspoon cornstarch

How to make it:

Prepare the marinade: In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice wine, and egg whites. Coat the chicken to the marinade mixture and let sit for 10 minutes.

Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the chicken stock, sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, chili paste, sesame oil, sugar, and the 1 teaspoon of cornstarch. Stir until the sugar and cornstarch are dissolved. Set the sauce aside.

In a large bowl or deep plate, toss the 1 1/2 cups cornstarch with the salt and pepper. Coat the marinated chicken in the cornstarch and shake off any excess before frying.

Heat the 3 cups of peanut or vegetable oil in your wok until it registers 350°F on an instant-read oil thermometer. Working in 2 or 3 batches, add the first batch of chicken cubes and fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the rest of the chicken.

Drain the oil into a heatproof container and save for discarding. Wipe the wok with a paper towel to remove any brown bits, but don’t wash.

Reheat the wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add another 1 tablespoon of oil and swirl to coat the base and sides. Add the dried chilis and garlic to the wok and stir-fry until just fragrant, about 20 seconds. Pour in the sauce mixture and stir until thickened, about 1 to 2 minute

Return the chicken to the wok and stir well to coat with sauce. Transfer the chicken to a serving dish. Garnish with white sesame seeds and scallions. Serve with white rice and vegetables.

SERVINGS:4

What you Need:

2 medium sized zucchini

1 Tablespoon olive oil

1/4 teaspoon paprika(use any spices you like, get creative)

salt and pepper

How to Make it: 

Start by slicing your zucchini ⅛ inch thick with a mandolin. Pat to dry with a paper towel.

In a medium sized bowl add the zucchini, olive oil, paprika, and salt and pepper.

Lay the zucchini in a single layer in the air fryer basket.

Cook at 350 degrees for 4-5 minutes. Flip the chips and fry for an additional 2-3 minutes. Check the chips frequently to make sure that they don’t burn.

Tips for Making Perfect Air Fryer Zucchini Chips

Here are a couple more things to keep in mind as you make your delicious air fried zucchini chips. You can easily tweak the flavor to your liking. Each batch will turn out so perfectly, you’re going to love them!

Use a Mandoline: Using a mandoline slicer will make your life so much easier! It gives you thin, even zucchini slices every time.

Don’t Overcrowd Air Fryer: Only cook a small batch of these chips at a time. Air flow is crucial for them to cook through properly. If there’s not enough space between each chip, they may end up soggy instead of crispy and golden. I have an air fry oven full size, this has been a game changer in cooking. Also you can pop these in a broiler for just a minute to really brown them up, we like them this way.

Switch Up Flavor: Feel free to customize these zucchini chips with all of your favorite seasonings and spices! A few fun ideas to try are lemon pepper, Cajun seasoning, ranch dressing mix, or even just a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and garlic powder!

Storing Leftover Chips

Because these zucchini chips are so easy to whip up, sometimes my eyes are bigger than my stomach when I make a batch. Good news is, you can easily store them and snack on them later!

At Room Temperature: Store any leftover chips in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Rolled them up, sprayed the tops with a little olive oil & sprinkled shredded parm on top. 350 for 15 min in oven.

Yield: Serves 4

What you need:

1 head garlic

2 Tbsp olive oil

11 oz mozzarella cheese, shredded

8 oz provolone cheese, shredded

¼ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

4 oz havarti cheese, shredded

12 oz cream cheese

1 Tbsp oregano

¼ cup fresh basil, chopped

½ tsp onion powder

Pinch of red pepper flakes

Fresh cracked pepper

 

How to make it:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel garlic and place garlic cloves on a lined baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over the garlic and tomatoes and gently shake the pan to make sure everything gets coated evenly in oil. Place baking sheet in oven and roast the garlic for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.

Combine 8 oz of the mozzarella with all of the provolone, parmesan, havarti, and cream cheese in a medium bowl. Once the garlic has cooled, smash each clove with the side of a knife to turn it into a sort of paste. Add the garlic, herbs, and tomatoes to the bowl of cheeses. Stir to combine.

Turn oven down to 350

Lightly butter an oven safe dish (I used a round Pyrex that holds about 1 ½ quarts). Add the cheese mixture to the oven safe dish and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake for 30 minutes until the top is golden and the dip is bubbling.

Serve immediately with toasted bread or chips. Also try my Pepperoni Stuffers

Notes: You can substitute flavors of shredded cheese for individual tastes. We use many different cheese combinations.

Chaffles with just 2 Ingredients

 

#keto #cooking #chaffles #easyrecipes #breakfast #lunch #brunch #dinner #snacks

What is a Chaffle? It is a waffle made with just cheese and eggs

This is the original chaffle recipe, with just eggs and cheese. These are super easy, you can use any waffle maker. They taste so good and you can use them for bread when making sandwiches as well.

Cheese – Any shredded cheese will work here. Mozzarella is used most often because it has the most neutral flavor, but cheddar is also common. For savory versions, any other cheese from the keto cheese list will work great. Some chaffle recipes (such as the pumpkin and jalapeno popper versions below) also have cream cheese added, but I recommend this only in addition to shredded cheese, not instead of it, because the shredded cheese is what creates the crispy texture.

Eggs – The ratio is one large egg for every 1/2 cup cheese.

CHEESE TIP: If you want your cheese waffle to have a more uniform in texture, use finely shredded cheese instead of regular shredded mozzarella. I usually have regular on hand, so that’s what I used and it was still delicious!           

 Preheat. You want your waffle iron hot, so that when the batter hits the pan, it starts cooking right away and makes a crisp exterior. (See my guide below on which waffle maker to use.)

Gather ingredients. The basic ingredients are eggs and cheese

Keto Chaffle Waffle Ingredients

 1 egg
 ½ cup mozzarella cheese
 2 tablespoons almond flour
½ teaspoon baking powder

Preheat waffle maker to medium high heat.

Whisk together egg, mozzarella cheese, almond flour, and baking powder

Pour chaffle mixture into the center of the waffle iron. Close the waffle maker and let cook for 3-5 minutes or until waffle is golden brown and set.

Remove chaffle from the waffle maker and serve.

Chaffle toppings and variations

There are various toppings and flavor combinations you can add to your a basic chaffle recipe. Serve with a glass of almond milk and you are ready for breakfast! Here are a few popular chaffle topping ideas:

Chaffle pizza – after your keto chaffle is done cooking, top it with 1 teaspoon of marinara sauce, sprinkle of cheese and pepperoni. Broil in the oven until cheese is melted and bubbly

Butter

Sugar Free Syrup – my favorite keto approved syrup is by ChocZero. They have many flavors to choose from. Maple Vanilla is my favorite.

Whipped Cream

Raspberries, Strawberries, Blackberries, Blueberries

Almond butter or other nut butters, like peanut butter

Cream cheese with Everything But the Bagel Seasoning
