2 lbs chicken breast 5 cups water 1 tbsp ground sea salt (or kosher salt) 1 tbsp crushed red pepper 1 tsp each: cumin, cilantro, oregano, nutmeg, paprika, chili powder, onion powder 1 tsp garlic 1-2 cups your favorite salsa Combine everything except the salsa into a pot Boil on high for 10 minutes Reduce to medium and boil for another 30 minutes Remove chicken from pot, shred and place into a bowl with the salsa. Mix, and enjoy. Tastes fucking fantastic and is only 1000 cals, with 200g protein. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
1000 cals? Am I supposed to eat the whole thing ate once (cause I will) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
If you can, then . . . I guess go for it. It's pretty satiating, considering it's almost 100% protein. I've been sitting here eating this bowl for the past 2 hours and I still have about half a pound that I haven't been able to put away. And I fasted all day today until eating this. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I'd hope 2 pounds of chicken would be satiating. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Will try. Thanks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Good recipe. I might try this and add some veggies for fiber. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Holy shit. As delicious as that sounds, eating all of that in a day, let alone a single meal, would make me hate chickens forever. |
||||||||

You gotta do what you gotta do. |

2lbs is roughly 4 average chicken breasts, correct? That's doable. I will try this one day, although I won't be eating it on one sitting. |

||||||||

|
|||||||
4 average hormone jacked up breasts. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I just completed the 2 lbs of chicken challenge. I'll do it again tomorrow night. Probably. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
can you take a pic of this meal? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I'm doing this tonight. Will take pics if I'm not lazy (Spoiler alert: I'm pretty lazy) Edit: it was delicious and I smashed the whole thing. Will do again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
wtf! |

|
|||||||
s'good, right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Yeah especially how easy it is. Honestly probably wouldn't bother putting any of the spices in next time. Can't taste them over the salsa. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Those are monstrous chicken breasts. That being said, I'm going to make this tonight and give it a whirl. Looks pretty damn good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Did this but with Pico de Gallo. Tasted awesome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I'm thinking of doing this, but making it in a sandwhich with cheese. |

Trying this tonight. Have some chilli peppers, adding some onion too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Yes, very good. Wife liked it too. I'm still making a sandwich with it tomorrow too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Making another batch tonight right now. Added some pumpkin spice, too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Pumpkin spice? GTFO with that nonsense. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Tastes damn goooood. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I'm going to try this recipe for sure. I've never actually boiled chicken before... this seems like a super simple (and quick!) way of cooking it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I froze some and had it for lunch today. I'll have to make more. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Making now. Noms to be had soon. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
In the event that someone with some knowledge will see this in the next couple hours: if I do this with boneless, skinless chicken thighs, same method just cook a bit longer? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Not sure why you'd need to cook longer. Thighs are great. |
||||||||

I've been stuck on this recipe for a while now gais. http://www.culinaryhill.com/chipotle-chicken/ INGREDIENTS 1 (2 oz.) package dried ancho chiles, soaked at least 12 hours (see notes)*** 1 (7 oz.) can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce 1 red onion, coarsely chopped 6 cloves garlic 2 tsp. cumin 2 tsp. dried oregano Salt and freshly ground black pepper ½ c. canola oil, divided 5 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed INSTRUCTIONS Split open each softened ancho chile and rinse the inside to the stem and all seeds (wearing gloves is recommended). Place in the bowl of a food processor or blender. Strain adobo sauce into a small bowl, discarding peppers or reserving for another use. Press down on the peppers to extract as much liquid as possible (you should have at least ¼ c.). For an especially spicy dish, add chipotle pepper seeds to taste. Add strained liquid to the food processor. Add onion, garlic, cumin, oregano, 5 tsp. salt, and 2 tsp. pepper to the food processor. Pulse several times until a coarse paste develops. With the motor running, pour ¼ c. canola oil through the feeding tube and continue to process until smooth. You should have two cups of marinade. Reserve one cup for immediate use and freeze the remaining for future use. Meanwhile, place half the chicken in a large freezer-safe plastic bag. Spoon in half the marinade, close the bag, and mash around to distribute. Add in remaining chicken, remaining ½ c. marinade, and repeat the mashing until all chicken is evenly coated. Place the plastic bag in a dish and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight. To cook, preheat a grill, indoor grill pan, or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Coat with 2 T. canola oil. Grill the chicken in batches, turning occasionally until the internal temperature reaches 160°F on a thermometer and bits of caramelized fond have begun to cling to the outside of the chicken, 10 to 15 minutes. Add 1 – 2 T. oil to your grilling surface between batches. *** Instead of the long ass method she recommends, we just throw the chili's in some water and boil them for 30 minutes to soften them. drain the water and then run your hands through cool water or wear gloves as recommended, open the chili's and de-seed them then throw them in the food processor with the rest of the stuff. |

Making this tonight, I didn't have any of those spices so I just threw in the random chicken spices and other bs I had to mix with some good salsa I have on hand. I will post results. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I think as long as one uses enough spices + a somewhat-flavorful salsa the actual ingredients don't matter too much. Just don't want to under-season. |

Just made this again tonight, did not use any spices other than salt, did not notice a difference. I use a really spicy salsa though so your results may vary |
||||||||

Yeah, you can improvise a lot of stuff. I've used salsa, canned tomatoes and garlic, you can adds beans and make a pseudo-chili. You can also use pre-packaged spices (typically, the mexican stuff works best). I typically also add 1/2 an onion. |
