Recipes including Chicken and beef *Will rep*

[MikeDS]

Can anyone give me a few recipes for lunch/dinner involving Chicken and/or beef. Probably don't have to say this but make sure the meals taste good, are low in fat, high-protein, good for muscle building. Will be giving reps to any good recipes

[scump]

if you like stir frys, this is a tip that will make them rock.

oyster sauce, marinate the beef in it (chopped thinly) for over a hour, then chuck in your favorite vegetables and a sauce to complement.

its probably high in sodium but oh well, the taste is amazing. you can also use it to make your own stir fry sauces, feel free to chuck in some noodles for some added carbs, if you really want them to be awesome buy the egg noodles that are dried you have to boil, take them out just before they are soft and the wok will finish them.

the best tip for the meat is, dont overcook it, do the meat 1st so its still undercooked, then chuck in the veg etc. if you overcook it your losing nutrients and it tastes crappy.

^ building on that I have been demoing this lately:
Asian Chicken/Steak and Tomato:

2 tomatoes
1/2 onion
4-6 oz chicken/ steak
1 eggplant (or any other veges you like... broc, cauliflower, beans etc)
1 whole egg (optional)

1 tbs oyster sauce
1 tbs soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
Black pepper

Cook the chicken, throw in the tomatoes and onion and a bit of water, throw the rest of the veges in and the sauces.

Can serve with rice or throw some noodles in. Really filling and delicious!

My fav. Chicken Parmagana - Bake the chicken in breadcrumbs first (no need for oil), then put 'Tomato Supreme' on it and a little cheese then under the griller to melt cheese.

My favourite:

300-400g chicken breast
1 bell pepper (green)
75g rice (raw)
2 onions
a whole lot of (cooked) vegetables (depending on what you like)
1 egg
soy sauce
salt, pepper
some oil

Cut the chicken breast(s) into small pieces.
Cut bell pepper into small pieces.
Cut 1 of the onions into small pieces.
Cut the other onions into 4 bigger chunks.

1) Boil the rice together with the big pieces of onion and some salt.

2) Heat the some oil (5-8g will do) in a skillet or Wok, pan fry the bell pepper and other onion, add the pieces of chicken when the onion is turning brown.

3) Add the vegetables when the chicken is almost done

4) Add the rice (the chunks of onion should have dissolved into smaller layers of onion)

5) Add salt, pepper and soy sauce (not much, just about 15-20 ml), stir the whole mass

6) Add a whole egg, stir again, wait until egg is done.

7) Eat!

Easy to prepare, utterly delicious, rich on nutrients. I usually eat the whole thing in one sitting, but you can easily get two meals out of this.

Additional notes:
- if you need some more fat, add 1 tablespoon of salty PB - tastes great!
- if you want to cut back on the carbs just leave out the rice and use 1 diced potato (about 250g) and more green vegetables instead.

Basque Chicken.

Fry chopped onions, and chopped red pepper in olive oil in pan until softened. Remove from pan and set aside.

Defrost chicken breasts. Cut into bitesize pieces and fry til just about browned. Add the onions and pepper and a tablespoon of flour. Add a tin of chopped tomatoes, mix, then add 1 pint of chicken or veg stock. Sprinkle in some Herbes De Provence, mix again, and leave to simmer for 45 mins, stirring occasionally.

Serve with basil. Good accompaniment for boiled potatoes and broccoli.

take two chicken breast and put one at a time between some wax paper or some plastic wrap. beat the crap out of it with a meat hammer till the chicken is half inch thin or so and it will cook evenly and more tender. must use the wax paper or plastic wrap to minimize the chicken braking in to a million chunks. you will get the best results with cooking it over a cast iron, ribbed pan. coat it in a bit of olive oil to keep the juices in and throw on your favorite seasonings and cook each side for 5-8min or so till done. will make the chicken really juicy. a cup of instant or brown rice and a cup of frozen mixed veggies like broccoli, corn and baby carrots on the side and you got yourself a really healthy meal. i make enough so i can eat it twice a day and sometimes i freeze some for the next day.
