ROASTED CURRY GINGER CHICKEN

ROASTED CURRY GINGER CHICKEN

This flavor-packed roasted chicken uses a “wet” curry rub. When marinating, some of the liquid will evaporate and the spices will bind to the food. This recipe has curry powder, cumin, garlic powder, fresh ginger root and fresh garlic. There is a small amount of liquid in the recipe other than lemon juice, sesame oil and grape seed oil. The crispy chicken skin has a wonderful delicious, caramelized color and texture. By adding the marinade spice mixture under the chicken skin, juices form adding more flavor to the meat during roasting. The white breast meat is very tender and succulent.  

A quick to prepare chicken recipe only takes 15 minutes and produces a wonderful aroma in the kitchen… a sweet – savory flavor to add to your recipe collection and on a ketogenic diet.

Curry powder works best when it is mixed with other flavorful spices and foods so that it is not the main flavor. Use curry powder with onions, garlic for a great flavor. Other spices often used with curry powder include ginger, coriander, cumin and crushed red pepper flakes.

Thai curry refers to dishes in the Thai cuisine that are made with various types of curry paste.  Most Thai curry dishes are made with curry, coconut milk, meat, seafood, vegetables and herbs.  Curries in Thailand mainly differ from the curries in Indian cuisine in their use of ingredients (herbs, aromatic leaves over a mix of spices).

Spaghetti squash is a great alternative to white rice or pasta (high in carbohydrates) on a KETO diet…especially when a dish has a flavorful gravy or sauce.  

Spaghetti squash can be cooked in a variety of ways, including baking, boiling, steaming or microwaving.  Once cooked the meat of this fruit can be prepared in a way that its “strands” look like and are as long as traditional spaghetti noodles.  It is wonderfully served with or without sauce as a substitute for pasta, and its seeds can be roasted, similar to pumpkin seeds.
