Home-Made FRIED CHICKEN WINGS!!

              Spoiling yourself to special treats occasionally is very important even on a healthy lifestyle.  What is important is moderation, and staying very active during such times.

I created this delicious homemade fried wings which can serve for lunch, dinner or pot-luck. The secret of this recipe is to have the wings marinate for more than 12-hours to enhance the juicy flavor of the chicken. I marinated mine overnight. 

Ingredients (serving size: 3):

 For Marination:
  • 10 pieces chicken wings (pat dry  with towel to remove excess water after washing)
  • Garlic cloves
  • Ginger (fresh & peeled)
  • Red onions
  • Habanero pepper (1)
  • salt for taste
  • curry
  • paprika
  • soy-sauce/ bouillon cube like Maggi/ knorr


For frying:
  • Flour
  • 2 eggs ( whisked for egg wash)
  • salt
  • Black-pepper


Method of Prep: For marination;
  1. blend garlic, ginger, onions, habanero pepper into a paste and pour over wings.
  2. Season with curry, paprika, soy-sauce/ bouillon cube, salt to taste
  3. Cover and allow to marinate at room temperature or in the refrigerate for more than 12-hours

Marinated Wings!!
For frying:
  1. If wings were in the refrigerator, Allow to thaw to warmness before frying.
  2. Pour oil into a pot enough for deep-frying and place over heat
  3. Add salt and pepper into flour and mix properly
  4. Take wings, one piece at a time, dipped into flour, then into egg-wash and finally into flour again. 
  5. Drop wings into hot oil and fry till golden brown
  6. Serve hot/ warm 


How I ate Mine:
             Because every meal deserves some sense of healthy in it, I paired mine with baked Irish potato chips (see recipe here: http://www.nutrientdoctor.com/2019/01/irish-potato-chips-baked-healthier.html) and spinach salad. This was absolutely delicious and I felt guilt-free.

Bok-Choy/ Lettuce Sharwama (low-carb)

Hello friends,           I recently made a slight change to my diet by reducing the amount of carbs I eat for dinner (Reasons I will be explaining in a book soon!!). I started trying new low-carb recipes and boy o boy did  bok-choy/ lettuce sharwama win a gold medal. This sharwama taste as delicious as regular sharwama and they richer in fiber, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and lower in calories ideal for weight management/ weight loss. For the dressing I used, reduced fat Mayo by Hellman which supplies ONLY 25-calories per tablespoon. You can use olive oil/ canola as a substitute for the mayo. Did I forget to add that you can get this meal fixed under 30-minutes? I used bok-choy for this recipe, however, if you use lettuce, you will get the-same perfect taste as with bok-choy. Ingredients 3 Bok-choy OR lettuce boats (washed & strained) 1 whole tomatoes (diced) 1/4 avocado (diced) Scrabbled eggs (Using 3 egg whites, onion...
