David’s Crack Chicken

Y’all, this one was never meant to be published but due to popular demand, we are going to forever keep this alive on this website. Did you know that David is the primary cook in this household? I just make the keto stuff but he actually does everything else. This recipe is for his famous crack chicken – it’s so good you don’t want to stop eating it. We used to eat it with a bowl of white rice, but this is perfect with cauli rice or mixed veggies. It’s even good by itself. It’s sweet, salty, spicy, and everything in between.

This recipe tastes best with dark meat chicken or wings, but you do you boo boo!

BREAKFAST/

Zero Carb Pizza Crust

This one is a throwback to the days we all had to fend for ourselves before all of the keto-friendly products flooded the market. Most people use canned chicken but this one uses my least favorite part of rotisserie chicken – leftover white meat! I swear no matter what you try to do to make it juicy, it gets drier and drier by the second, which is why it’s the perfect “flour” for this zero carb pizza dough. You can use rotisserie chicken or any leftover skinless white meat chicken. The thinner you roll out the “dough” the crispier the crust will be.

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chicken breast (white meat, no skin, shredded – you can use canned chicken breast as well)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup parmesan cheese (grated)

Instructions

  • Using cold white meat chicken, finely shred enough to make two cups. I used a hand mixer until it was super fine.
  • Mix the shredded chicken with the eggs and parm.
  • Spread the mixture onto parchment paper and place another piece of parchment paper over the mixture. Use a rolling pin or bottle of wine to roll the dough until it is thin. Mine was as thin as your standard thin crust pizza. The thinner you roll it, the crispier it will be.
  • Air fry or bake the dough at 400 degrees for 10 minutes (until golden), flip the crust, and finish baking it for another 10 minutes (until golden).
  • Add sauce, mozzarella, and toppings and baking for another five minutes until the topping is melted and to your liking.

Mom’s Vietnamese Style Curry Chicken (Ca Ri Ga)

This is one of my favorite dishes my mom makes and hits the spot every time. It’s great with toasted low carb bread or served over cauli rice or keto-friendly noodles. You could honestly serve this to carbies because the biggest swap is monkfruit sweetener for sugar.

Wilde Jalapeno Chicken Chips Review

I think it’s safe to say that a lot of us have a love/hate relationship with carbs. We love to eat them but we hate how sometimes the bad carbs can make us feel. One of my biggest weaknesses when it comes to carbs is eating chips. I literally cannot say no to a bag of chips. There’s something about the crunchy, salty, oily combo that throws me off any type of diet wagon…EVERY TIME. Queue Wilde’s Chicken Chips. I walked past the display at Whole Foods and was like W(here’s)T(he)F(ood) I gotta try these. Low carb, four flavors, three ingredients?!?! At first I was having low carb flashbacks of those Quest chips (*cough*so dry and felt like I was eating cardboard*cough*) but since I’ve made it a point to find the perfect low carb chip alternative, I just needed those in my life. Four dollars later, I popped open bag of these babies and tried the Jalapeno variety. First impression – loved it! It pretty much tastes like low fat deep fried chicken skin with a sprinkling of jalapeno to give it a kick. There’s a slight sweetness from the coconut oil it’s fried in so it’s a nice balance from the saltiness of the chicken skin and jalapeno. I don’t know if I could swap these for Lay’s Jalapeno kettle chips, but when I’m feeling fluffy and am trying to get my ass back into gear, I think these are going to be my new go-to.
