Spanish chicken



For those that asked for recipe …


( I thought I’d share recipe again as the other one got taken down ?!?.. … my Instagram seems to be playing up or something!!!!?.. )


Ingredients


4 boneless skinless chicken breasts OR 6 boneless & skinless chicken thighs

Spray frylight or olive oil

2x portions @carbxworld rice

1 cup chicken broth

1/2 lemon

chopped parsley - for garnish


Spanish seasoning mix

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon coriander

¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning



In a small bowl whisk together all ingredients for the Spanish seasoning mix. Divide in half and set aside. Cut the lemon in half, then thinly slice one half - for garnish - and reserve the other half for juicing later in the recipe.


Place chicken in a medium bowl. Drizzle / spray with oil, then toss to coat well. Use half of the prepared seasoning mix to rub on both sides of each piece of chicken.

Drizzle a large skillet with remaining oil and bring to medium heat. Cook chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer to a plate. (It won't be cooked through at this point)

Put rice, chicken broth, juice from 1/2 of the lemon, and remaining seasoning mix into an ovenproof dish and stir to combine. Add chicken to the on top of the rice. Cover and cook for 20-25 minutes at 180 until tender, and chicken is cooked through.

Garnish with lemon slices and freshly chopped cilantro or parsley and serve immediately.



It’s so good !!!

hiya, just wondered about the chicken. I love skinless, boneless chicken fillets done on george, with green and red peppers, half a vine tomato, some raw red onion and chestnut mushrooms also done on george. then wrapped in iceberg lettuce cups.

How can i use 4 fillets and stay within 200kcal?

Also, could i replace the lamb on scewers with chicken?

The only meat i eat is either skinless, boneless chicken fillets, or pork loin or pork mince. I can't stand lamb, turkey etc. Never have.

I'm also confused as i thought i was only allowed 100g of chicken? im currently on the 800kcal, but want to get to 1,200kcal sooner. I'm stuck at home 24/7, and upstairs waiting to…
