{LCHF recipe} Chicken or tofu in spicy peanut sauce with green crackling topping and coconut-lime cauli rice
O k People, get ready for a stunning, soulfoodiges, creamy, satisfying flavor-explosive, green-cracked low carb and LCHF favorite food. Yeah, I know - the Americans always have so incredibly vocal terms at the start. Everything looks really sexy. But here and now it has to go with the good old German. The main thing you believe me, that this dish is simply the total blast here. Anything that needs a wonderful meal at the end of a long day comes here for me.
The recipe comes from my reigning favorite book * and immediately thrilled me when I only saw it on paper. I knew right away: that'll be fine. And so it was. Normally, I recommend you recipes with a more manageable list of ingredients. But even if this is a little bit longer, you should dare to cook. Because the preparation itself is really simple and you will love the result. After all, you get the ingredients in every supermarket at 19:55 (which is always important to me personally). Only the curry paste and the coriander could possibly be a small challenge every now and then. It's worth the short stop in an Asian shop. Or you try this internet. That's where you get everything.
And one more little request: If you can, buy organic chicken or free-range chicken. The French have since, for example a great thing under the Label Rouge (here you can find out if you like). And roast the chicken as short as possible to keep it juicy and not squeak (you know what I mean). So, have fun cooking!
