Does anyone have any good chicken or fish recipes?

Uh... what do you want to do with it?

Use it in a salad (green, bean, veggie, etc)?

Part of a main course (enchiladas, soup, pasta, stir-fry, etc)?

On it's own (grilled, baked, panfried, deep-fried, poached, etc)?

Use it for dessert (oh, ok, now I'm being silly... I know it can be done, but I can't think of any common chicken desserts... :-) )

Anyway, check your bookstore or library for cookbooks, and check recipe sites like www.recipesource.com (previoiusly SOAR) and www.allrecipes.com and even www.foodtv.com if your brave enough to try their sometimes complicated (but sometimes easy) recipes.

Stepha,

For a REALLY (I mean SUPREMELY) wonderful collection of chicken recipes, check out The Cook's Illustrated Complete Book of Poultry (Open Original Shared Link is a link). It has an entire chapter devoted to each major way of preparing chicken (*including* stir-fries, curried chicken, chicken and dumplings, chicken pot pie, and recipes that use ground chicken), turkey (including burgers and other applications of ground turkey), Cornish hens, goose, duck, and game birds! They also include a short essay in each chapter describing their recipe testing process and why they chose the cooking methods they did. I plan to see about converting the dumpling and pot pie recipes to be gluten-free, and the other recipes are all pretty easy to convert. I am SO thrilled with this book! You might be able to find it at your local library if you want to look it over before you decide to buy it. It is OUT OF PRINT, so you'll probably need to order it online--but www.cooksillustrated.com had the best price I saw anywhere, anyway ($22.75 plus shipping).

Another book I use frequently is 1,000 Lowfat Recipes by Terry Blonder Golson. I get the feeling it is out of print, as well. Among many other things, it has a chapter full of delicious fish recipes, and some really yummy vegetable side dishes, too (I am ADDICTED to Roasted Cauliflower with Rosemary and Garlic!). It's true that you would need to ignore the chapters on breads and cookies and convert some of the other recipes, but that's a small price to pay (in my opinion) for a densely-packed book of nutritious and delicious meal ideas!

I hope this information is helpful!

Mango Chicken

4 leg quarters work well.

Marinate skinless, salted chicken pieces in:

1 really ripe mango, mashed

1 lime, juiced

1 tsp. ginger, ground

1/4 onion, chopped

pepper, to taste

2-3 oz.(to cover chicken) Alessi White Balsamic Vinegar

--found at Wal-Mart is a sweet, salad vinegar

Let marinade for at least 10 min.

Next, remove chicken from marinade and brown on all sides in 2 T. oil(I use a large, lidded cast iron skillet). Drain oil. Add mango marinade back in and bake, covered, for 45min.-1hour, or until tender!

Serve with rice cooked with ginger and chopped carrots.

Enjoy!

Sarah, could you post the recipe for Roasted Cauliflower with Rosemary and Garlic? It sounds wonderful, and I'd like to try it.

Thanks, Mariann

Done, Mariann--and thanks for reminding me that I have some leftover roasted cauliflower in my fridge! :D I don't think it will be there tomorrow! I hope you are doing well!

Thanks Sarah. I'm going to make it as soon as aI get my hands on some cauliflower.

I'm doing fine, just getting used to eating gluten-free again. It is such a relief after the last few months! Within one day my intestines were not rumbling violently and the pain was much less. I am looking forward to the results of my biopsy (in three weeks!)

God bless,

Mariann :)

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      @trents, Hi, thank you for the reply, I used to be pretty good at taking my vitamins and supplements, because I also have PCOS, I have Barrett's esophagus, it's just too expensive to have it stretched all the time, and I also get kinda panicked when trying to swallow pills because of getting choked a lot before.  I think maybe the thrush made it worse, I just can't figure out why I can't get it to go away

      Oh, my dear!  Get off that Fairlife chocolate protein shake!  That's got milk in it!  Egads! Some people with Celiac disease react to the protein Casein in dairy the same as to gluten with the inflammation and antibodies and all.  Reacting to Casein is not the same as lactose intolerance.  Damaged villi are incapable of producing lactAse, the enzyme that digests lactOse, the sugar in dairy.  If the villi grow back, they can resume making lactase again.   I react to casein and lactose both.  I get sores in my mouth and coated tongue, and inflammation, my Dermatitis Herpetiformis flares up, I get cold sores or shingles, and TMJ pain, well, joint pain in general, and my brain health is really affected, depression and anxiety.  So dairy is a really scary horror movie.     I take Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD  (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide).  These have anti-viral properties.   I've had chicken pox/shingles, and I also harbor the cold sore herpes virus which traveled to one eye through a nerve. It's broken now.  I had really bad nerve pain in my check at the time, then it turned into Bell's Palsy.  Thiamine TTFD helped clear up the dysphagia I was also experiencing then.  I took lots of Lysine to fight the herpes viruses as well.  Between the Thiamine TTFD and the Lysine, and avoiding dairy, mine stays dormant for the most part.   I also take a B Complex, and Magnesium Threonate to help the Thiamine TTFD work, Vitamin C, Vitamins A and D, and Zinc supplements to help Thiamine TTFD fight off those viruses. I have Sjogren's so I understand dry eye and mouth.  I found including Omega Threes, healthy fats, improved my problem.  You know how oil floats on top of water?  That's going on in our body, too.  Flaxseed oil supplements, and flaxseed oil to use on food is one way I increased my Omega Threes.  Choline and sunflower seed oil supplements are other choices I've tried.  Eat real food!  Eat fresh vegetables and fruit!  I had cooked stew in a crockpot until super mushy so I could chew and swallow it without lots of pain.  I got a bag of mandarin oranges, Cuties, whatever they're called now.  They're not too acidic.  Gluten free crackers don't have any nutritional value, no vitamins.   I followed the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol Diet.  The book The Paleo Approach by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne has been most helpful.  She's a Celiac herself, and the diet has been shown to improve intestinal health. I have seen liquid vitamins on line.  Thiamine TTFD comes in a capsule, but tastes really strongly of garlic, so be prepared if your Gatorade tastes funny.

      @Charlie1946, celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel which is the part of the intestinal track where all our nutrition is absorbed. Celiac disease, therefore, often results in nutritional deficiency related health issues. In addition, you describe a diet that sounds largely devoid of fruits and vegetables and dairy (for calcium). This does not bode well for good oral health or good health in general.  It can take two years or more for good healing of the lining of the small bowel after adopting a consistently gluten free diet. In the meantime, adding in good quality supplements can help compensate for poor nutritional absorption efficiency. Common over the counter vitamins and supplements are often optimized for shelf life rather than good assimilation/utilization by the body. We commonly recommend that those struggling with nutritional deficiencies start taking high potency B-complex, 5-10,000 IU of E daily, D3, Zinc and magnesium glycinate. They need to be checked to make sure they are gluten free since wheat starch can be used as a filler in pills and vitamins. Costco Kirkland Signature and Nature Made brands are often good choices. What is causing your swallowing problems? Is it the thrush?

      The Benfotiamine and thiamax need magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes.  Yes, go ahead and take the Benfotiamine and Thiamax now and include the magnesium as soon as possible.   Yes, take the magnesium at breakfast, too.   I take my Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamax and B Complex  at the beginning of breakfast.  I take the magnesium after I finish eating breakfast.  Yes, I take NeuroMag.

      @knitty kitty thank you for replying so quickly! I have not done well at all taking vitamins or supplements, I have such a hard time swallowing even small pills, so I have resorted to crushing them and taking them with Gatorade.  Pretty much I eat baked chicken tenders, Fairlife chocolate protein shakes, gluten free crackers. Thank you so much for the advice, I will try it all for sure, because everything I have tried OTC has done nothing
