Maggi So Tender

15 October 2014

This is a product that I’ve been using for about a year, when they first brought it out here in the UK and it is one of the best things I’ve had with chicken.



Before you jump to any conclusions, this is not a sponsored post in any way. It’s just something I want to share out of the kindness of my heart, how great am I!

This is a product that is part of the Maggi range, and it comes in 3 flavours – Italian herb, garlic and paprika, and it is pretty good value as you get 4 in a pack.

The best part is that you don’t have to use oil when you cook it. Just be careful though because the chicken probably won’t cover the whole area so the spice on the uncovered area may burn and set off the fire alarm!

I really love the paprika one, I’ve tried the garlic one but I found it too salty and I didn’t enjoy it much. Just to make it even better there's only 25 calories per papyrus paper so you aren't adding a whole lot to your meal, except a ton of flavour!

When you cook the chicken in this paper, it keeps it moist and doesn’t go dry as it sometimes does in the oven. It only takes about 10 minutes to cook so it makes a quick and healthy dinner!

This is what the papyrus paper looks at first



Pop it in the frying pan, with no oil or anything!



I normally serve mine with a load of vegetables but I overcooked my cabbage last time I had it, how embarrassing…


I can't recommend these enough! Have you tried any Maggi products? Do you think you will be trying these?

Marinated Salmon

2 October 2014

I’ve been meaning to do a recipe with salmon for a while; I normally just use soy sauce and some chilli flakes, which has to be one of my favourite dishes. You should definitely try using this, as it is so simple and quick.

However, this recipe is an adaptation of my basic recipe, as I wanted to try something different and use a few more ingredients.

Ingredients:
2 Salmon fillets
1 tsp of fresh chilli, chopped
1 tsp of fresh ginger, chopped
5 tsp of soy sauce
2 tsp of maple syrup

I was originally going to use honey but I didn’t have any so I used maple syrup instead.

Method:
Start my skinning the salmon fillets if they have the skin still on them, then chop them up into small chunks and place in the frying pan or wok.
Mix together all the ingredients for the marinade, taste and adjust to your liking.


Pour the marinade over the salmon and leave for 20 minutes or leave for as long as you can.



Cook on a medium heat until the salmon is cooked through, around 5 to 10 minutes.



I normally serve it with rice and on this occasion I did, along with some cabbage, delicious!
