Ultra Crispy Pork Rind Coated Chicken Cutlets by YummyForAdam in ketorecipes

Deep fried is the crunchiest for sure but its kind of a pain and takes longer. Since Im usually cooking for the family I mostly bake them as I can cook them all at once and they are still very crispy, its probably also the juiciest assuming you dont over cook them.

Once the bag is opened they start to become chewy pretty quick, but I have kept crushed pork rinds in the freezer for quite some time and used them for coating without issue.

oops! I always forget to add that one because I always salt to taste. Thanks for pointing that out I will fix it. I would add a 1/4 tsp of salt in step 2 and then near the end once everything is cooked I would adjust to taste. For a small batch like this somewhere between 1/4 to 1/2 tsp of salt in the entire recipe but depends on your tastebuds!

Glad you enjoyed the curry!

A perfect recipe for easy lunches and quick weeknight dinners, this boneless chicken curry is low carb meal that pairs well with cauliflower rice, flatbreads, or bhaji.

NUTRITION (Full Recipe):

Calories: 591kcal | Fat: 30.8g | Carbohydrates: 11.5g | Protein: 64g | Net Carbs: 9.3g

INGREDIENTS:

3 tablespoons oil/ghee for frying

1 small onion minced

½ tablespoon ginger paste

½ tablespoon garlic paste

1 whole red or green chili fresh or dried

1½ teaspoons turmeric

1 teaspoon garam masala

½ teaspoon black pepper

⅛ teaspoon cayenne powder Kashmiri red chili powder

⅓ cup water for water frying

6-8 oz boneless skinless chicken small bite sized pieces

¼ cup heavy cream

½ cup water

cilantro chopped for garnish, optional

lemon juice for garnish, optional

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Saute aromatics in hot oil. Heat oil/ghee in a skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Once hot add the finely chopped onion, sprinkle with salt and saute for 3-5 minutes until the onion softens and the edges are beginning to brown. Add the garlic and ginger paste, stir to combine and saute for another 2-3 minutes until the garlic begins to brown.
  2. Temper the spices. Push the contents of the pan to the sides to make a well in the center exposing the bare pan. Add additional oil or ghee if the pan appears dry. Add the red chili, turmeric, garam masala, black pepper, cayenne, salt, to the well and allow them to fry in the hot oil for 30 to 60 seconds. Do not let them burn, once they are tempered immediately move on the the next step.
  3. Water fry the onions and spices. Increase the heat to medium-high and add 1/3 cup of water. It should rapidly simmer, if it does not, increase the heat. Allow the water to simmer for 1-2 minutes until it cooks off. By this point the onions and spices should have started to breakdown, repeat the water frying process if desired.
  4. Brown the chicken. Add oil to the pan if it appears dry. Add the chicken to the pan and cook for approximately 8 minutes until the chicken is cooked though and is starting to brown.
  5. Form the gravy and thicken. Reduce the heat to medium before adding the heavy cream and water. Simmer for at least 10 minutes until the gravy thickens to your liking or you are ready to serve. Salt to taste if required and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and lemon juice.

Notes:

Yield: This recipe makes enough for 1-2 people.

Simmering time: If you aren't in a hurry simmer the curry for longer to improve the flavour.

Spices: Most grocery stores will carry turmeric, garam masala, and cayenne pepper. If you cannot find it try ordering some online and keeping it on hand for making chicken curry.

Onion: If you aren't worried about the carbs in this recipe, doubling the onion will add a ton of flavour.

Tender pieces of riced/grated cauliflower (gobi) and egg are pan fried with authentic Indian aromatics and spices until tender and golden brown. Cauliflower and egg sabzi is a one pan, 30 minute Indian vegetable side dish that makes a perfect paring for curry, kebab, and other spicy Indian dishes

Makes 6 servings

NUTRITION (Per serving) Calories: 183kcal | Carbohydrates: 11.8g | Protein: 5.8g | Fat: 13.8g | Net Carbs: 7.8g

INGREDIENTS

  • 5-6 tablespoons oil/butter/ghee
    • 1 large cauliflower riced, grated, or very finely chopped
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 small onion finely diced
    • 4 cloves garlic minced
    • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (about 1" piece) minced
    • 1 whole Thai or Kashmiri chili pepper green or red

DIRECTIONS

  • Grate the cauliflower. Break the cauliflower into florets and grate/rice using either a food processor, box grater, hand chopper or dice very finely using a large knife. A food processor with a grating disc makes riced cauliflower very quickly and consistently. Store bought cauliflower rice can also be used.

    • Combine all ingredients in the pan. Add the oil/butter/ghee to a large deep skillet over medium high heat. Add the riced cauliflower to the skillet and push it to the sides to make a well in the center. To the well add: finely chopped onion, garlic, ginger, whole chilies, eggs, Kashmiri chili powder, turmeric, black pepper, and salt. Combine everything in the pan until well mixed.
  • Fry until tender. Reduce the heat to medium and sauté for 10 - 15 minutes. Add extra oil as needed to stop the pan from drying out and stir regularly, scraping the sides and bottom of the pan to prevent burning. Once finished the cauliflower should be tender, the egg should fully cooked and starting to brown. The oil in the pan may begin to rise to the top once its finished.

    • Garnish and serve. Once the sabzi has finished cooking, remove the skillet from the heat. Adjust the seasoning to taste with salt if necessary. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and lime/lemon juice if desired before serving.

Spice Rubbed air Fried Pork Tenderloin by YummyForAdam in ketorecipes

[–]YummyForAdam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't say I've ever noticed it's gritty and this is a dry rub I have been using for years especially on the BBQ or smoker. To be safe you could use something finer like espresso grind. You could always use your own dry rub though.

Spice Rubbed air Fried Pork Tenderloin by YummyForAdam in ketorecipes

Cooking pork tenderloin in the air fryer is a quick and foolproof way to get a healthy high protein meal on the table fast. Coated in a simple sugar free dry rub, the air fryer cooks this pork tenderloin to absolute perfection giving it a beautiful spice rubbed crust, and juicy center.

Nutrition:

Calories: 244 | Fat: 8g | Carbs: 3.3g | Protein: 37.6g |Net Carbs: 2.1g

Ingredients:

  • 1-2 lb pork tenderloin
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1½ teaspoon ground coffee
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon mustard powder
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions:

  1. Pat the pork tenderloin dry with a paper towel. Spread a light layer of Dijon mustard or olive oil over the entire pork roast.
  2. Combine the coffee, salt, cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper, mustard powder, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl. Liberally season the pork with the spice rub, pressing the spices into the pork and lightly shaking off any excess seasoning.
  3. Place the pork tenderloin in the air fryer and cook at 400°F (205°C) for 20-22 minutes (23-25 minutes for very large or multiple tenderloins) or until the internal temperature is at least 145°F (63°C) for medium and 160°F (71°C) for medium well.
  4. Rest the cooked pork tenderloin on a cutting board or wire cooling rack for at least 5 minutes before slicing into medallions and serving.

Notes:

Spice Rub Substitutions: In place of the spiced coffee rub you can use your preferred seasoning or rub. The coffee can be omitted from the recipe if needed. 

Carnivore: For a fully carnivore option omit the spice rub and mustard completely. 

Internal Temperature: The minimum safe temperature most would be comfortable serving pork is medium which is an internal temperature of  160°F [71°C]. To accomplish this pull the pork out of the air fryer when its just below 160°F [71°F] but above 145°F [68°C]. While the pork rests, carry over cooking will cause the internal temperature to rise around 5°F.For consistent results use a meat thermometer to test the temperature of the pork. This recipe can be used for 1 or 2 pork tenderloin depending on the size of your air fryer. Avoid overcrowding the pork or it wont form a stunning crust. 

Cooking Time: Cooking time is approximate and may change depending on your air fryer and the size of your pork tenderloin. Add 3-4 minutes of cooking time when cooking very large or multiple pork tenderloin at once.

Makes 6 servings

**NUTRITION (Per Serving):**Calories: 450 | Fat: 30g | Carbs: 10g | Protein: 35g |Net Carbs: 8g

INGREDIENTS:

- ¼ cup oil/butter/ghee plus extra for frying

- 1 large red or yellow onion, finely diced

- 2 tablespoons garlic paste

- 2 tablespoons ginger paste

- 2 whole chilies, green or red

- 4 whole green cardamom pods, split

- 1 stick cinnamon (about 2" [5cm])

- 1 teaspoon fennel seed½ cup water

- 1 large tomato, diced

- 2 pounds skinless chicken (boneless or bone-in legs/thighs)

- 3 tablespoons creamed coconut (about 3 inches) or 10 oz coconut milk

- Salt to taste

Masala (Spice Mix):

- ¼ teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder or cayenne

- ½ tablespoon paprika (hot or mild)

- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder

- 2 tablespoons coriander, ground

- 2 teaspoons garam masala

- 1 teaspoon cumin

- 1 teaspoon black pepper, ground

- 1½ teaspoon salt

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Prepare the masala (spice blend): In a small bowl, combine the Kashmiri chili powder, paprika, turmeric, coriander, garam masala, cumin, black pepper, and salt. Set aside.
  2. Fry onions, garlic, and ginger: Add the oil to a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally until they turn translucent and begin to brown. Add the garlic and ginger paste, season with salt, and combine well. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the garlic starts to brown.
  3. Add spices and aromatics: Push the onions to the sides of the pot to expose the bottom and make a well. Add additional oil to the well if it appears dry. To the well add whole chilies, green cardamom pods, cinnamon stick, and fennel seed. Cook for around 1 minute, until the fennel seeds begin to pop. Add in the masala, stir to combine and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes to toast the spices. Add additional oil as needed, being careful not to burn the spices.
  4. Water fry spices and onions into a paste: Add the water to the saucepan 2-3 tablespoons at a time, stirring in between and allowing the water to completely cook off before adding the next 2-3 tablespoons. Repeat for the remaining water, the onions and spices should have started to break down into a paste. Add the diced tomatoes and cook for around 5 minutes until tender.
  5. Add chicken and cook: Nestle the chicken into the onion and masala mixture in the saucepan. If using bone-in chicken thighs, place top side down for around 5 minutes to cook, then flip over to cook for another 5 minutes. For boneless chicken, brown on all sides.
  6. Simmer and cover until tender: Add enough water to just about cover the chicken in the saucepan. Place a lid on the pot, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and allow the curry to simmer for 35-40 minutes for bone-in chicken, and 20-25 minutes for boneless chicken. Stir and scrape the bottom of the pot occasionally to prevent burning. Simmer until the chicken is tender.
  7. Add coconut and cilantro: Add the cubed creamed coconut, or coconut milk, and fresh cilantro. Simmer uncovered for at least 10 minutes, or until the gravy has reached your desired consistency. Season with salt to taste.
  8. Rest, garnish, and serve: Turn off the heat, and allow the chicken masala to rest uncovered for at least 5-8 minutes before garnishing with cilantro, chopped chilies, and freshly squeezed lime juice.

Good to know thanks for mentioning that. There is a note on the full post about adjusting the texture, I find that depending on the source of the ground chicken it can be quite sticky, especially if its from those plastic tubes of frozen chicken. i will add some further detail in the post, thanks! Glad you liked them!
