From Salad Wraps to Spinach Bites: Sunday Dinner

I love Sundays. Usually my husband golfs, and I go to the gym, and church. We’re both home about 2pm or so, and ravenous.  Today, I wanted orange chicken in lettuce wraps but I didn’t have any romaine. So spinach bites were born!

The recipe is easy and quick, and tastes so good. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top to finish off the Chinese look.

Orange Chicken

  • 1 tablespoon olive oilIMG_20170723_133338
  • 4 chicken thighs, diced
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 3 heaping tablespoons honey
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • ⅛ teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon ground garlic powder

Place diced chicken and olive oil  in a medium-sized skillet pan and heat on medium until white and fully cooked, or about 10 minutes.

Mix the rest of the ingredients in a bowl until well incorporated and add to the pan. Cook about 20 minutes on medium until the sauce has thickened. Use romaine to make lettuce wraps or spinach leaves like I did, for Spinach Bites, and enjoy!

Cauliflower Chicken Fried “Rice”

The more vegetables I can get into my daily diet, the better! I love them so for me it’s easy to add onions and peppers to a main dish or make a veggie side to get in lots of goodness throughout the day.

I also love Chinese food. The thing is,  if you mix meat and veggies and add some toasted sesame oil, you just made yourself some Chinese food.

Homemade, veggie-filled, and yet so delicious, you have to try this recipe! Use pre-riced cauliflower and a frozen vegetable of choice to help cut your prep time, you’ll love it!

Cauliflower Chicken Fried “Rice”

  • 2 chicken thighs, chopped
  • 2 cups cauliflower, riced
  • 1 cup frozen vegetables (peppers, carrots, peas (omit peas to keep Paleo)
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, diced
  • 2 eggs (scrambled)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons coconut aminos (soy sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

In a wok or large deep sauce pan, set the heat to medium and add the olive oil and onion. Cook for about 5 minutes.

Push onion to the outside of the pan and cook the chicken until white and cooked through. Push the chicken to the sides of the pan and add the two eggs into the middle and cook.

Add the garlic, cauliflower, vegetables, coconut aminos, and toasted sesame oil to the pan and let cook about 10 minutes until everything is warmed. Sprinkle salt and pepper and serve. Enjoy!
