In a perfect world I would wave a magic wand and wake up not craving meat anymore. Unfortunately that hasn’t happened yet. Changes don’t happen overnight and my picky Venezuelan taste buds are not forgiving when I eat plant based recipes that don’t satisfy. I’m not a professional chef, I’m just a human with a tiny kitchen trying my best to eat healthier.
So when I do indulge in meat I try to find healthier options that don’t sacrifice flavor. Here are 6 amazing healthy chicken and fish recipes!
Amazing Healthy Chicken & Fish Recipes
This is the only way I make salmon now. It's crazy fast, crispy, and juicy on the inside. My spice mix is only 3 ingredients but packs a flavor punch that I crave constantly!
Made this recipe for my entire Latino family and my grandma gave me a thumbs up. There is no greater seal of approval for a healthy recipe than that. Love Italian food but tired of eating pasta? Try this recipe, trust me you won’t regret it.
Hands down the best chicken tortilla soup I’ve made. This is one of the recipes that made me fall in love with the Instant Pot or Ninja Foodi. She says chipotle is optional (Tip: I always add it to this recipe. Probably like ¼ - ½ tsp of chipotle powder). This is one of the meals I make when I’m feeling lazy. I don’t do any of the toppings except for tortilla strips…which to me is taking a tortilla chip and crushing it with my hands.)
Budget friendly recipe that utilizes drumsticks. Really simple ingredients and easy to make but delivers when it comes to flavor! My husband loved this.
This chicken mango salad is one of my favorite recipes of all time in the universe. A feast for the eyes, dynamite chicken, and a super easy homemade dressing. The chili lime chicken that goes on top is *chef’s kiss*. ( ˘ ³˘)♥︎ My default way of making chicken is the chicken in this recipe no matter what the context is. Step up your salad game with this recipe!
This instant pot shawarma chicken is bursting with flavor. It's addictive and I make it regularly. I do end up needing a little bit of broth when I cook it in my instant pot, even though she says it's not necessary.
