Delicious Vindaloo Curry Chicken

Today I'm going to post one of my favorites recipes ever. I really like spicy food and even more it is Indian style. This is a curry vindaloo style, it is so full of flavor and delicious you will get addicted to it. This recipe takes a little bit longer then the usual recipes I post here in the blog, but trust me, it is worth every minute you invest in it. I love it and cook it at least 3 times in a month.

Please let me know what you guys think of it in the comments!

Ingredients:
2 medium onions
4 garlic gloves
1 chili pepper
Fresh ginger (the size of your little finger)

Handful of Parsley

4 tomatoes

Olive oil

1 table spoon of butter

2 boneless and no skin chicken breasts

4 table spoons of curry

1 vegetable cube stock

1 table spoon of corn starch

Salt

Black pepper

5 table spoons of balsamic vinegar

1 table spoon of honey

1 1/2 cups of water

Instructions:

What takes longer in this recipe is to chop everything up, so get it prepared and then the rest is easy. Chop everything in small pieces, except the tomato and the chicken that you will cut in medium cubes.

In a large pan in medium heat, add the butter and a little olive oil. Cook the onion with the garlic, chilli pepper, ginger and parsley. Let it cook for around 10 minutes or until the onions get golden. Don't forget to keep steering so it doesn't burn.

Add the chicken in the pan and let it cook until it start get all white color, at this point, add the curry, vegetable cube stock, corn starch, salt and black pepper. Let it cook a little bit more, steering constantly so it doesn't burn in the bottom until golden.

Once you notice everything is well done, add the balsamic vinegar, tomatoes, honey and the water - the water should be enough to cover the chicken, in case it is not enough add a little bit more of water. Let the pan start to boil and then change the heat to low heat. and let it cook for around 45 minutes steering occasionally so the curry doesn't get stuck in the bottom of the pan and burn. In case the sauce start to dry out with the time, add more water to level it up.

Try the sauce once is done just to make sure you have enough season to it, if yu need add more pepper or salt. 

This recipe goes perfect with some good white rice. Trust me, you will cook it again in the future, it is addicting and plus leave an awesome scent in the house. <3

Brazilian Chicken Pie

This is my mom's recipe, I don't know where she got this from at first, but I know all my friends and family love this recipe and always ask for more. I'm pretty sure this recipe will please the American taste as well. 


I am calling it Brazilian chicken pie, because every chicken pie that I saw here in America always comes with some sort of crust and something more similar to a chicken stew inside. In Brazil, most of our meat pies comes in a "cake" form, with no crust, but with a fluffy delicious dough.

The awesome thing about this recipe is that it may look complicated, but in fact is really simple and easy to make. What takes longer is to chop every ingredient, but once you have that ready, it may take around 20 min to put everything together.
In case you are vegetarian, this chicken pie recipe works really well with spinach instead of chicken. Or if you feel like having fish, change the chicken for tuna, it will taste amazing just the same.

Now everybody, get prepared because this recipe have so much flavor and colors that I couldn't hold myself and took a LOT of photos! Now take your knives and let's chop all this ingredients!

Ingredients:
FOR THE FILLING
1 chicken breast cooked in water and shredded
1 garlic glove
1 onion
2 tomatoes
Handful of parsley
Handful of olives

Black pepper
Salt
Olive oil

FOR THE DOUGH
2 cups of milk
1 beef bouillon in cube
3 eggs
1 cup of oil
1 cup and 1/2 of whole wheat flour
2 table spoon of baking powder
Butter to grease the pan

Mediterranean Salad in Pita Bread

This is a delicious salad recipe that I learned from the grand master Jamie Oliver, you guys will love it. This is one of my favorites salads and I'm pretty sure you will be able to enjoy it as well. But in this case, because I was hungrier then a salad can take care of, I transformed it into a kind of sandwich with a pita bread (feel free to use a different kind of bread, but try to use one that is hard enough that won’t get soak with the salad dressing).

1/2 purple onion

½ Red chili pepper with no seed

2 table spoon of cottage cheese

3 black olives with no seed

Healthy Soy Hamburger

 

Alright guys, today I'm going to post a recipe that I didn't plan. It only happen because when I opened up my fridge today it was missing so many ingredients to make something more elaborate that I needed to cook something real simple and fast

No, I'm not against buying frozen food I just prefer food that I make on my own, but for this time where all I had in the fridge was beer, some tomatoes, cheese and lettuce, I have open my freezer and check out what I have there. In my case I have some soy hamburgers, but you can use regular hamburger if you don't like this, or even a steak if you are lucky enough to have one.

This recipe is awesome for you to kill your interior fat kid that is dying for a hamburger but you don't wanna give up on your diet. So why not take some calories out of the way and make it without the bread. Don't worry you will love it and feel good after eat a hamburger.

Now put your skinny self in the kitchen and let's cook!

1 Frozen soy hamburger
2 Slices of buffalo mozzarella (or just a regular cheese you may have home)
1 Tomato 
1/2 Red chilli pepper chopped small with no seeds
Some lettuce
Black pepper
Salt
Basil
Olive oil
Parmesan cheese (if you want)

Tuna Pate

Quick and super ease tuna pate for those moments of lazyness and hundryness that occasionally attack us.

15min to prepare

3 table spoons of mayonnaise
1 can of chunks of tuna with no liquid
1 tomato
1/2 onion
1 clove of garlic
4 olives
2 table spoons of Parmesan cheese

Chop the tomato, garlic, onion and olives in small pieces and put it on a bow. Now that everything is chopped you just need to put in the rest of the ingredients: mayonnaise, tuna, Parmesan, and as much as you like of pepper, oregano and oil.
