Chicken Thighs
Adobo
Filipino Chicken Adobo
This authentic Filipino Chicken Adobo recipe was shared with me by a Filipino chef whose family sells Adobo in the Philippines. It's an easy recipe- marinade optional- and perfect with white rice bowls. Traditionally, it's served with potatoes but I've substituted them for carrots to make the braised dish lower-carb.

Pumpkin Curry
Easy Pumpkin Chicken Curry from Scratch
This easy pumpkin chicken curry is made of juicy, tender chicken morsels simmered in a deliciously aromatic sauce that is full of warm spiced flavor. It's well- spiced but not spicy and can be bulked up with healthy veggies, all in one pot. Plus it's super flexible: it can be made with coconut cream, regular cream, pumpkin puree or none of the above!

Thai Basil
Easy Thai Basil Chicken (20 minute)
This easy Thai Basil Chicken is a delicious dish on the dinner table in just 20 minutes! As it has capsicums in it, it's a complete meal with just a bowl of white rice. It is similar to but NOT Pad Gra Pao Gai (as that dish calls for Holy Basil, not Thai Basil, which is more difficult to get in the West.) I have made the recipe with easy-to-get ingredients in the US, but also included instructions for making an authentic Thai Chicken dish.

Lettuce Wraps
Thai Lettuce Cups

This Healthy Thai Chicken Lettuce Wrap is an easy appetiser, so flavourful, no dipping sauce is needed. One of my favorite Asian lettuce wraps thanks to the juicy chicken thighs (low carb) and fresh basil leaves. I show you how to make it spicy (or not)- better than pf Changs anyday!

Korean Lettuce Tacos
Korean Chicken Lettuce Wrap (30 min)
Korean chicken lettuce wraps are an easy, healthy, quick, and delicious Asian Appetizer, side dish, or low carb main. I've tested these Asian lettuce cups with both Korean Gochujang chicken thighs (stir fry) and ground chicken- scroll down to see which one works better! (short marinade.) Leftovers can be mixed with greens to make Gochujang Chicken Salad or chicken fried rice/ noodles.

Expert Tips
Tip #1: Use chicken thigh. It has more flavor and gives you more leeway when it comes to cooking times. (With chicken breast you have to be exact, if not the meat becomes dry.)
