Yummy recipes for eating protein anyone want to share



Recommended Posts

I love to cook but since now after surgery I have to be creative with the way I eat my Proteins.< /p>

The other day I made chicken with artichoke, peas and garlic and parsley.

Now, I know what you are thinking this is a lot of food.< /p>

I use those ingredients for the chicken to come out yummy and soft.

I recommend chicken legs as they are softer and the meat is darker in which they reccomend for the second phase.

Making it is simple:

Warm up a skillet or pan non stick with a little olive oil

Chop your garlic in small pieces, chop parsley and stir fry it, The aroma is amazing.

Than take some arthichoke bottoms cut them up into four pieces put them in the pot.

Take a small box of peas and add them,

For seasoning a little sea salt and black pepper.

Now after you stir fry everything together , add Water to make sure everything is covered but do not over flow as the chicken releases natural juices.

Now you can add your chicken skin on for it to be juicy.

Second part of seasoning to give the dish a nice color take a tablespoon of olive oil and mix it in with tumeric, a little salt and drizzle over the chicken dish.

Let cook for 60 minutes and boom you have soft tender chicken with a healthy sauce where everything is soft.

I would love to hear more recipes, and if anyone is interested in more for fish, chicken and meat let me know.

Lizzy ;)

Hi there, I love to cook, too. How about chicken Marabella, yum! I do the basic French cooking method of sautéing the meat (we like chicken thighs a lot but this also works for any Protein -- chicken, beef, fish, tofu) -- I use a little organic canola or other high high oil and get the pan HOT first then place meat in skillet. Let it go a bit to really brown then flip. I take the chicken (or whatever) out when it's done and use the pan to do up onions, garlic, whatever veggies and pick up all that flavor, add any herbs, etc., then put the meat back in and pour stock on top to cover. Let it simmer down and the chicken or beef or whatever you chose is so soft and delicious. As an alternative to stock, can use coconut milk to go in a Thai direction, or go curry, Tomato sauce, etc. a million variations. Isn't it great to love to cook but not eat much? So fun!

Hey there wow your recipe sounds amazing I will try that.

That is a great idea leaving with using the juices of the Protein to cook the veggies or onions.

It is definitely weird yet great not to be able to much. I must say though it is so odd still.

I guess it takes time to get used it .

Have any good recipes for chicken wings?

Ive discovered Zoodles!!

made them yesterday and today. I added baby tomatoes, garlic, red capsicum, fresh chilly, shredded kale. Sauteed them till they were warm but less than half cooked, then stirred through some fresh baby spinach and japanese tofu. Yum!

Not sure if thats enough Protein but definitely no carbs and so filling.

Like your chicken recipe will try that as well.

Zoodles are awesome! (They are noodles made from zucchini. My "I don't eat vegetables" husband even likes them. I make them with carrot noodles and it makes my whole family smile...just a little italian seasoning. I'm thinking they will be a go to for me after surgery!

It is, made Raw pad thai with zoodles today!! yum, went great with rare roast beef.

Red capsicum is like Red peppers, the ones that are bigger and thick fleshed I think. Very high in Vitamin C

That sounds yummy!

I wonder how Pho would taste with zoodles?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
