Keto Glass Skin Chicken

Keto Glass Skin ChickenKeto Glass Skin ChickenKeto Glass Skin ChickenKeto Glass Skin ChickenKeto Glass Skin Chicken. This chicken has got to have the crispiest skin ever, if done correctly will crack like glass, and with only 6 ingredients is one of my easiest to make. Yes,  lots of good fats.

I discovered this recipe on a site called Splash of Keto. (I followed her on Twitter), I have recommended some of her recipes and retweeted several of them and have never gotten any acknowledgment but she was relatively new at the time and of course was going to give her any benefit of the doubt. I am not the most adept person on social media myself so… She calls her dish Salt & Vinegar Chicken but I like the name Keto Glass Skin Chicken because it pretty well describes the way the chicken skin turns out. If you take a knife or fork and tap it, should sound and crack like glass. I have changed the ratios a little and upped the temperature quite a bit but it is essentially the same.

Keto Hoisin Tartar Sauce

Keto Hoisin Tartar SauceKeto Hoisin Tartar SauceKeto Hoisin Tartar Sauce. I decided to post this recipe for myself so I wouldn’t have to guess at the ingredients every time I wanted to make it. So make it or not, it is fabulous and I probably will never go back to my older Tartar Sauce again. There is always a catch and this one needs my Sugar Free Hoisin Sauce but since I always have that in the fridge to make Peking Duck anyway, for me it’s easy peasy so…for the win it’s keto hoisin tartar sauce.

I have made this with both dill relish and sweet relish and I have to say I personally like the sweet relish a lot better and Mt. Olive brand is available at Safeway. I have also tasted several sugar free relishes and Mt. Olive is still THE best.

Keto Daikon Tartiflette

Keto Daikon TartifletteKeto Daikon TartifletteKeto Daikon TartifletteKeto Daikon TartifletteKeto Daikon TartifletteKeto Daikon Tartiflette. I am making this recipe available because…drum roll please…I had absolutely all the ingredients in hand and at the ready including Creme Fraiche that I just happened to make last week. I have changed nothing except to replace Yukon Gold potatoes with Daikon Radish so you are going to get pretty much the real deal here. I have made no secret that where, and when possible, I will shamelessly substitute low carb ingredients from someone else’s high carb recipe which I have done here. This Keto Daikon Tartiflette is simply the essence of Keto~LowCarb food at its finest.

When I first saw the recipe it was touted as an après ski dish so, we’ll let it rest on that but if I were you, (and I’m not) I would use this as a side dish with any meal featuring meat. There are many good cheese substitutes which I have added to the Notes.  A few last words; keto daikon tartiflette is easy to make and to-die-for good.

  11. Crème Fraîche Or Sour Cream (Optional)
Instructions
  1. Depending on circumference size, peel then cut daikon radish into ⅛” half-moons or into 4 pie shaped pieces if daikon is large. You want bite size pieces.
  2. Par boil, cook to tender, and drain.
  3. Meanwhile, cut bacon into ¾” pieces, fry until mostly crispy, and drain leaving 2 T grease in pan.
  4. Cut and add medium chopped onion to bacon fat, add ½ t salt, and cook until softened & just barely browning.
  5. Add thyme and garlic and cook about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Add wine, reduce by half, stir in heavy cream, pepper and last ¾ t salt, reducing only slightly.

Notes
  1. If you look up this recipe on the internet it calls for Reblochon Cheese which, very sadly, is not available in the US. Its been used in Europe since the 14th Century but no again, not here (you know raw, unpasteurized milk & silly stuff like that) so here are a few subs you can use.
  2. I used Raclette. You can also use a Camembert, or Brie as both rinds are eminently edible and melt. Both Gruyere & Emmenthal may be used as well as Fontina. (Without the rinds).
  3. Any meltable cheese will work but but...there are some that are better than others and please DO NOT cheddar.
  4. You may get a couple more servings per this recipe.

Keto Vietnamese Shaking Beef

Keto Vietnamese Shaking BeefKeto Vietnamese Shaking BeefKeto Vietnamese Shaking BeefKeto Vietnamese Shaking BeefKeto Vietnamese Shaking Beef. You are going to see this most often served atop a salad and if that’s what you want then by all means do it and it’s what I did the first time I made it. If presented with just meat I would choose just meat every time. The Vietnamese do not eat as much meat as we do, opting instead for more vegetables & rice. My friend David Diamond @LDLSkeptic told me not to forget meats in 2023 so this keto Vietnamese shaking beef is for you David.

Notes
  1. Since good tender meat has gotten so expensive, I am now using the little known hanger steak. For me, it is the right size to make bigger chunks of beef as I like my meat on the rather rare side.
  2. Also good with paper thin slices of purple onion garnishing.

Keto Eggplant Parmesan

Keto Eggplant ParmesanKeto Eggplant ParmesanKeto Eggplant ParmesanKeto Eggplant ParmesanKeto Eggplant Parmesan. This recipe is for two-three people so all you need to do is double it for four or…buy a really large eggplant. (Not Recommended) The idea may be to look at your finished fried slices to determine the number of people you can serve. You will need 8 slices total for two and if you have a child to help you eat this then you can stack three slices instead of four and the two left over for a smaller appetite. I found 3 Mini Rolls (formerly lost) in my freezer which is why you see them on my plate. I know there are many, many recipes for low carb eggplant Parmesan, this is just my own easy way to make it. This is keto eggplant Parmesan because it has enough cheese (fat) in it to choke a dog.

Low Carb Chicken Hearts

Low Carb Chicken HeartsLow Carb Chicken HeartsLow Carb Chicken Hearts. Don’t ask why but I have always loved chicken hearts. They are super easy to fix and because of the their high fat content, they are naturally very high in the satiety category. I happen to pretty much like most (but not all) organ meats and low carb chicken hearts is one of them. As a kid my mom always fried the WHOLE chicken which meant the heart, gizzard, and liver and I guess that is probably the reason I have always loved them. I don’t eat gizzards but my Chicken Liver Paté is utterly to die for.

Keto Tiger Everything Dip

Keto Tiger Everything DipKeto Tiger Everything DipKeto Tiger Everything Dip pretty well spells out what it is in its name, and is another one of those things that I like to say is good on a brick…and it is that good. I am showing it as  kind of a tartar sauce dip with shrimp but it is also fabulous with all kinds vegetables which you may find in/on a crudités platter. It may sound a bit spicy but it is not with the addition of the sour cream or mayo. After you have finished with the Base and before the last addition of sour cream or mayo gives it a good taste because it is wonderful with meats of all kinds. So go ahead and at least try it because it is super easy to make and…good on a brick. Also great to dress a hamburger, dip Daikon Radish Fries & green beans into and etc., etc., etc.

Low Carb Daikon Radish O’Brien

Low Carb Daikon Radish O’BrienLow Carb Daikon Radish O’BrienLow Carb Daikon Radish O’Brien is a particularly versatile dish and will go with just about any meats. But where it really shines is with eggs for breakfast, which I eat for dinner. I call them super glorified hash browns and can also be used with left-over Prime Rib, Pulled Pork, or Lamb mixed in for a fabulous hash.  Low Carb Daikon Radish O’Brien is wonderful served for breakfast on Christmas or Thanksgiving to kind of curb small appetites that may be trying to get into early morning candy but certainly sophisticated for the older palate. Don’t know it you can tell by the pictures but the radishes are cut to Brabant size.

Keto Bunless Philly Cheesesteak

Keto Bunless Philly CheesesteakKeto Bunless Philly CheesesteakKeto Bunless Philly Cheesesteak. I’m not sure but I may have had only one or two of these is my whole life and the reason is probably because I don’t particularly like green peppers. Well, I have been an adult for a long time now and guess what, I fixed this for myself only using yellow and red peppers and it was terrific. Now if you like green peppers then for sure go for it and I’m here to tell you it’s the herbs and spices that make this so good and…if you have your own favorite mix then go with that too. The meat I used was very thinly sliced top round roast and you can use the best meat you see fit to use. If you can buy it already sliced all the better. I rolled it, stuck it in the freezer and then sliced it again and this is the same meat cut I use for Beef Rouladen and Beef Stroganoff. You may wish to use your own Dry Italian Herbs and I have a sugar-free recipe too. I think you’ll find this keto bunless Philly Cheesesteak is a winner, winner, beefy dinner.

Keto Daikon French Fries

Daikon Radish French FriesDaikon Radish French FriesDaikon Radish French FriesKeto Daikon French Fries and I can not imagine any recipe more simple than this. Potatoes have been a staple the world round for 1,000’s of years, the daikon radish, probably a long time later but I know for sure, as a diabetic, it has been good to me. Who knows, maybe if enough people ask for them in grocery stores someone would come up with a way to mass produce keto daikon French fries but until then…you can make them for yourself. Just a little TIP: Unlike potatoes, Daikon Radishes do not turn brown. They have the thinnest skins imaginable and yet can last for weeks, unpeeled, in the fridge.

All my many other Keto~LowCarb Daikon Or Red Radishes As Potatoes Recipes may be seen here.

Keto Chicken Spiedini

Keto Chicken SpiediniKeto Chicken SpiediniKeto Chicken Spiedini and what a terrific way to enjoy chicken. Easy, easy recipe with lots of kudos, oohs, awes, & praise from your family or dinner guests and…what a great way to worm Ground Pork Rinds instead of bread crumbs into your food. Keto Chicken Spiedini is super lemony and we all know how well lemon goes with chicken. It is traditionally served with a pasta and the first time I ate mine with Spaghetti Squash…with much relish I might say and yes, I ended up eating both the smaller skewers. The second picture is shown with Cauliflower Grits and was more than equally as good. Despite the list of ingredients, these go very quickly with lots of in-between waiting time. If you feel lazy and don’t want to go to the trouble, you can leave them whole and just fry them in butter.

Notes
  1. There are natural ways to cut a thigh by dividing the smaller side from the larger side then cutting the smaller into 2 pieces and the larger into 4 pieces. This is approximate and you should cut appropriately. You just don’t want the pieces too large. About 1½” pieces should work and you should get 6 cubes from each thigh. For judgement I figured about 2 thighs per person or for 1-10" skewer.
  2. I used 6” skewers, I also have 10”, and they are what I would use next time. I ate both of them.
  3. I have never washed chicken and I suggest you never wash yours either.

Keto Cream Cheese Fondue

Keto Cream Cheese FondueKeto Cream Cheese FondueKeto Cream Cheese FondueKeto Cream Cheese FondueKeto Cream Cheese FondueKeto Cream Cheese FondueKeto Cream Cheese Fondue. This cream cheese fondue is the second fondue recipe on the site but honestly it is the easier, creamier of the two. Many people have trouble melting Gruyère or other traditional fondue cheeses so this keto cream cheese fondue is for you. Personally it is difficult to tell the difference and it’s what I am going to be making from now on. The ingredients are both piquant and what most people will have on hand or are easily obtainable. Though some of you will use keto cream cheese fondue to dip bread into, its primary purpose is to use it with sausages, vegetables, and yes, even pork rinds are terrific. It also makes a great nachos sauce using pork rinds and if topped with chicken or beef…a fabulous dinner.

Notes
  1. Please, only use Philadelphia brand Cream Cheese. I used some off brand crap from Whole Foods the third time I made this and it DID NOT work.
  2. Best if left to sit for 10-15 minutes and if you need to reheat it a bit then just do it slowly while stirring.
  3. If you have leftover it will stay the perfect consistency and will not "harden" in the fridge.
  4. I got my queso shredded cheese from Safeway.
  5. If you like, add more spices to your own taste.
