Easy Chicken Burgers

Posted by Tara · Leave a Comment 

So it’s summer time. Here is a great, healthy chicken burger recipe to take to your friend’s bbq, or pack with you for a picnic, or just anytime!

Ingredients:

1 lb ground chicken breast ( I use Smart Chicken, because it is low fat, and tastes amazing!)

1 egg white

1/2 cup chopped onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, cilantro

Juice of 2 limes

1 packet of salt free or lower sodium fajita seasoning.

Directions: Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Either preheat your oven to 350 or preheat your grill. These take about 20-25 min to cook because they are so lean. The veggies in the burgers give it a really nice texture contrast, and add a lot of fresh flavors!

Serve on whole wheat buns, or naked, with some salsa on top! Enjoy!

Simple Seared Ahi Tuna

Posted by Tara · Leave a Comment 

One of my favorite meals while I am dieting is a simple seared Ahi Tuna steak.  I usually serve it with brown rice, or quinoa, and asparagus or green beans.

What you will need for this recipe:

~Fresh Ahi Tuna steaks, Salt, Fresh Cracked Black Pepper, and Olive Oil

For the sauce:

~Rice wine vinegar, Red Pepper Flake, Honey, Braggs ( amino acids, tastes like soy sauce, much lower in sodium, but same delicious taste), and Chili Oil

Heat 2 TBSP of olive oil in a pan on medium heat.  Sprinkle each side of the tuna steaks with salt, ( I like and use Morton’s Lite salt), and cracked black pepper.  Place tuna steaks in pan, sear on each side to your desired temp. I like these served rare, so I cook for about 1-2 minutes per side. Take out of pan and allow to rest for 5 min.

The sauce is super simple too! In a small pan heat about 1/2 cup of Braggs liquid amino acids, 1/2 cup rice wine vinegar, 1-2 TBSP honey, red pepper flake to taste, salt and pepper.  When it comes to a boil, turn it down to low-medium heat and simmer for 5 min.

Slice the tuna, serve over a bed of brown rice or quinoa, top with sauce.  Add your favorite veggie and enjoy!
