I Feel Like The Forrest Gump Of Chicken

Recommended Posts

amberleigh Contributor

Here are some recipes we've tried lately...

Chicken breasts on the stove top with extra virgin olive oil and some southwestern seasoning from Pampered Chef

Salsa Chicken:

Chicken breasts cut up (or shredded)

Salsa (we use Pace)

Southwestern corn (frozen steamfresh)

Black olives

Garbanzo beans (or black beans...but we don't really like black beans)

Mix all together on the stove top

Sweet and Sour Chicken:

Chicken breasts cut up

Stir fry veggies

Water chestnuts

Sweet and sour sauce (Kraft)

Mix all together on the stove top

Soy Sauce Chicken:

Same as above, but with LaChoy soy sauce

Before I was dx'd we used to do chicken with Fiesta Cheese soup and Cream of Chicken soups...but I think those are no-no's now so we were thinking about using Velveeta Mexican cheese and Progresso Cream of Mushroom. You can bake it or do it in the crockpot.

Oh and we mostly serve white rice with all of the above recipes.

Please share your fave recipes! :D

Go to allrecipes.com and search for lemon butter chicken. SO GOOD! Double the sauce and have over rice for lunch the next day. YUM!

A quick and wonderful chicken dish (25 min.): Buy Taste of Thai Spicy Peanut Bake. Coat tenders and bake. YUM! Sometimes we use two envelopes (or one whole package) to make it extra spicy.

Chicken Breasts with a can of Cranberry sauce and a large can of crushed pineapple with a sprinkling of cinnamon and bake.

I don't have any recipes right now, but I am cracking up at your title. We eat SO much chicken, and I have yet to tire of it. I can eat small amounts of red meat, but ever since my 3rd child, something changed, and red meat just didn't seem appealing anymore.

So it's chicken at least 4 times a week here! I could go down the long list of chicken meals we've had...we do roast chicken, lemon chicken, sticky chicken, sweet & sour chicken, chicken stir fry, chicken coated in corn flakes, chicken enchiladas, bbq chicken.......and I'm sure there are more I'm forgetting. Glad I'm not the only one, lol.

My daughter loves chicken and noodles.

I start by using my huge non-stick skillet. I then cook some chicken breasts cut in small pieces in a bit of olive oil. I then add a chopped onion and some sliced carrots and celery and if I have them, a handful or two of frozen peas. After stirring together, I add enough sweet rice flour to coat it all and then slowly add a carton of chicken broth and a bit of parsley, salt and black pepper.

While the gravy cooks down, I boil some rice lasagna noodles that have been broken into about thirds. I like fairly large pieces. I like the lasagna noodles because they are nicely thick. I cook these just until al dente and then drain and add to the chicken, veg and gravy.

My favorite chicken recipe is chicken drumsticks, because they're so much cheaper for one. I just put them in a glass or ceramic baking dish (no metal, it burns) and sprinkle craploads of spices over the skins; lemon pepper, salt, garlic, oregano, cilantro, paprika, parsley, basil. Bake for one hour at 350 and you should be done. That's for a dozen drumsticks though, less would take less time, so check at 45 minutes.

Tonight I made chicken pesto with gluten-free Penne.

1 cup fresh basil

5 tbsp parmesean cheese

3 tablespoons pinenuts

1/2 cup olive oil

salt to taste

put everything in a food processor and mix

Boil 1 lb of your favorite gluten-free pasta.

In a pan heat olive oil, slice chicken in thin strips and sear in oil until thoroughly cooked. Add in sundried tomatoes and pinenuts if you choose. Cook another 5 minutes or until pinenuts are toasted. Pour pesto sauce over chicken mixture and heat. Mix pasta and chicken mixture thoroughly. Serve warm. We had salad with it tonight.

Hope you enjoy.

there's 2 lemon butter chicken recipes :huh: i'm guessing it's not the italian one. both seem to have lots of good feedback though. is your cranberry chicken very sweet? seems like it would be not so dinner-ish...

amybeth Enthusiast

You're right....the Lemon Butter Chicken is NOT the italian one ....

The tang of the cranberry kind of offsets the pineapple and the cinnamon helps too. I actually eat it without much of the topping on top - the flavors get into the chicken in the baking.

I love chicken!!

Ok our salsa chicken is too easy

Dump salsa over chicken boobies and bake

I like it with rice and steamed broccoli.

salsa all around!

Baked chicken breast, cooled, tossed in salad (yum!).

Feta cheese chicken:

Put a pile of spinach in a glass dish (I suppose you could use other kinds, I just always use glass), sprinkle with feta cheese, drizzle a teeny bit of olive oil

Plop pieces of chicken on top

Bake 350 til the chicken is done

Mmmmm.... okay, now I want to make chicken!! Ha ha

My son loves oven friend chicken. We marinate the chicken in eggs and spices. Then coat the chicken in potatoe buds. Place on a baking sheet sprayed with Pam and bake. It is really good.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
