This flavorful low FODMAP chicken recipe combines Asian-inspired elements like miso, chili, ginger, and lime, resulting in a fragrant and delicious dish perfect straight from the oven. The marinade can be prepared up to two days in advance, with optimal results achieved through overnight marination. The chicken, nestled on a bed of scallions and sprinkled with sesame seeds, is roasted to a golden perfection. Serve this delightful dish with your favorite low-FODMAP vegetables or salad for a complete and satisfying meal, ideal for both casual family dinners and gatherings with friends. While the recipe recommends bone-in chicken quarters (thigh and drumstick as one piece), you can adapt it to your preference with boneless thighs, drumsticks, or even a whole chicken cut into quarters. Keeping the skin on helps retain moisture during cooking. If using chicken breast, adjust the cooking time accordingly, as it tends to cook faster than bone-in pieces. For optimal storage, keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer preservation. To reheat, simply thaw and warm in the microwave or oven. Serve with a low-FODMAP salad or veggies of your liking for a balanced and enjoyable meal.
This Keto garlic bread recipe delivers a delightful combination of a crunchy crust and a soft, bouncy crumb, enhanced with a flavorful garlic butter. Perfect for those following a Keto or paleo diet, this recipe yields one large (660g/23.2oz) or two medium (330g/11.6oz) baguettes. Enjoy one immediately and freeze the other for later, or halve the recipe for a single medium baguette. The key to this Keto bread lies in the use of psyllium husk (rough husk form, not powder), which acts as a gluten substitute when combined with water, creating a gel-like substance that makes the dough easy to handle and gives the crumb its characteristic bounce. Additionally, psyllium husk supports digestion by acting as a prebiotic. Apple cider vinegar is used to boost yeast activity by creating a slightly acidic environment, while a small amount of honey or coconut sugar kick-starts the yeast. The quantity of honey is minimal and completely converted by the yeast during the long proof time, ensuring no residual sugar remains in the baked bread, thus maintaining its Keto and paleo status. Lupin flour, derived from sweet lupin beans, is rich in protein and fiber, low in glycemic index, gluten-free, and low in starch. With only 1g net carbs per ¼ cup serving, it's a Keto-friendly ingredient. However, those with nut or soy allergies should exercise caution due to the beans' close relation to peanuts and soybeans. As an alternative, a neutral-tasting protein powder or coconut flour can replace lupin flour, though this will alter the bread's texture. Ensure the yeast is activated with honey or coconut sugar and that the water temperature does not exceed 100°F/38°C to prevent killing the yeast. Activation is indicated by a foamy mixture after 10 minutes. For best results, consume the Keto garlic bread on the day it's baked. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat in the oven. For later consumption, wrap a second baguette in a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to one month.
