Coconut Chicken and Shrimp

2krazyketos — Wed, 05 Apr 2023 14:31:14 +0000

Coconut Chicken & Shrimp

We love fried shrimp and chicken but as we all know, breading is a NO-NO on Keto. This recipe solves that problem and adds a tropical flair to it.

Course Main Course

Cuisine Mediterranean

Prep Time 5

Cook Time 20

Servings people

Ingredients

1 serving Pina Colada Keto Chow
1 Cup shredded coconut
1 pound Chicken Terderloins
20 Large Shrimp Peeled and deveined
1-2 Large eggs

Instructions

In a bowl, combine keto chow and shredded coconut.
In a separate bowl, beat eggs
One at a time, dip the shrimp and chicken into the egg mixture
Using a fork or spoon, transfer shrimp and chicken to the bowl with the "breading" mixture and cover completely.
Shallow fry in a frying pan with coconut oil until golden brown. Do not over cook it.
You can also cook this in an air fryer at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until brown. Flip halfway through. For best results in an air fryer, lightly spray the chicken and shrimp with a healthy spray oil like coconut oil or avocado oil

Video

Notes

This can be cooked in an air fryer for oven but for best results, shallow fry in a pan of coconut oil. If you are cooking it in an air fryer or oven, we suggest lightly covering it with a spray oil after you coat the chicken and shrimp

Hot Dogs

Hot Dogs

We love hot dogs but many of the store bought hot dogs have sugar, natural flavors and lots of other questionable ingredients. Making your own hotdogs is pretty easy and only requires a few things.

Prep Time 1

Cook Time 1

Servings Hotdogs

Calories 167kcal

Equipment

Ingredients

2 pounds Ground Beef 80/20 or higher in fat (DO NOT USE LEAN)
2- grams Redmond Real Salt
10 grams Paprika
5 grams Granulated Garlic
4 grams Ground Black Pepper
3 grams Onion Powder
2.5 grams Prague Powder #1
1 cup Crushed Ice
20 feet Sheep or cellulose casing

Instructions

Get your meat very cold by putting it into the freezer for a little while. You want to keep the meat below 40 degrees
Grind meat on a course grind (if you are grinding meat)
Combine all of you spices and blend by hand into the meat
Put mixture back into the freezer for a little while to get it cold (again, keep it below 40 degrees)
Run meat mixture through a grinder on a medium grind plate. If you don't have a grinder, or are using pre-ground meat, skip to the next step
Place all the meat into a food processor along with 1/2 cup to 1 cup of ice. Emulsify the meat until it becomes a uniform consistency and color. After about 1 minute, add some more ice to keep it cold. You will know the meat is fully emulsified when it is one color and you can not distinguish the fat from the protein. It should be very sticky. It should stick to your hand when you hold it upside down
Place mixture back into freezer while you clean your tools and set up stuffer
Load up the sausage stuffer with your casings and hot dog meat.
Stuff the hot dogs and then tie off every 8-10 inches.
Place the links in fridge overnight
Precook your hotdogs in a smoker, Sous Vide or by Par-boiling. You want to do this at a low temperature until the hot dogs reach an internal temperature of 150-155 degrees
As soon as the hot dogs are done, immediately transfer to an ice bath for a few seconds to stop the cooking process. Then transfer back to pan to allow to further cool down.
Once they are cool, if you are using cellulose casings, remove from casing. Place hot dogs into an airtight container (we like to vacuum seal them)Can be stored in the fridge for 7-10 days or frozen for 6 months.

Video

Notes

The key to making good hot dogs is to keep the meat cold the entire time. It is also helpful to chill your grinder and sausage stuffer, which will help keep the mixture cold. If you allow the meat to get warm, it will affect the emulsification. You also want to not overcook them. Doing that will cause them to be dry and the fat will ooze out of the casing.

The below nutrition facts are based on the number of hot dogs we get out of 2 pounds of meat. It will be different depending on how long and thick you make your hot dogs

When meat is finished, it will still be soft. Remove from oven or smoker, dab off excess oil and allow to cool. The meat will crisp up a little after it cools. Store in an air tight container,

Notes

The below nutrition facts are for chuck roast and are only an approximation. To determine the exact nutrition for your batch, weigh it before cooking and determine how much protein and fat is in that amount. (For example, 1 pound of ribeye has 1100 calories, 85g protein and 85g fat). After cooking, weigh what is left and separate into portions. Divide the nutrition facts from before cooking by the number of portions you have. So, if you have five, 1 ounce portions of ribeye, each serving would be 220 calories, 17g fat and 17g of protein.

Chicken Skin Chips

We love crackers but all the crackers available, keto or non keto, have carbs. These chicken skins make delicious crackers and stand up to the "dip" test. The best part about them is there is zero carbs and no additional oils

Servings

Calories 170kcal

Equipment

2 Sheet Pans

Ingredients

6 ounces Chicken Skins
Redmond Real Salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Cut Chicken Skins into pieces (generally 2-3 pieces from each skin)
Place a sheet of parchment paper on a sheet pan
Lay Chicken Skins on the parchment paper and blot dry with a paper towel
Sprinkle with seasoning. (we highly recommend Redmond seasonings)
Flip skins over and season the other side
Cover chicken skins with another sheet of parchment paper.
Place second pan on top of skins and bake at 350 degrees for 30 - 35 minutes
Check the skins around the 20 minute mark to make sure they are baking evenly

Video

Notes

The below nutrition facts are an approximation. It is very difficult to figure out the exact nutrition because there is leftover fat in the pan and the skins lost water weight in the cooking process
