A simple warm zucchini salad that’s bursting with flavours and textures. The zucchini slices are first charred grilled, then dressed in a lemon dill vinaigrette. Red currants offer a tart and sparkling flavour that works beautifully with mellow zucchini. Plus, they add a pop of bright, glossy red to the salad. If desired, add some toasted nuts or seeds for the crunch. Enjoy them as is, with some roasted chicken or steak, or serve over a bed of hummus or Greek yoghurt.

Low in calories, gluten-free and full of flavour - this easy recipe is ideal for anyone who wants to eat light and healthily without sacrificing taste. When it’s hot outside and you find yourself craving lighter meals, zucchini spaghetti with pesto is the perfect choice. This dish looks just like pasta, tastes wonderfully fresh, just like a salad, and at the same time, is low in carbohydrates, gluten free and quick to prepare.
Zoodles also taste brilliant raw – especially in summer as a cold dish with cold pesto. So you can simply mix them with the pesto straight after cutting. Instead of mozzarella minis, you can also use pan fried haloumi, tofu or boiled eggs.

Mafé or maafe, a peanut stew with just the right amount of heat, known throughout West Africa, originated in the Senegambia region. It features a rich, velvet-smooth gravy made from ground peanuts or unsweetened peanut butter and tomatoes, loaded with tender meat and/or vegetables, and served over rice or couscous. While lamb and beef provide a traditional, deeply flavourful broth, other variations like chicken, seafood and tofu pairs brilliantly with the sauce too. You can also make this with just root vegetables, like pumpkins, cassava, carrots, sweet potatoes, and turnips. Original recipe from Senegalese chef Pierre Thiam via Food & Wine calls for a mixture of root vegetables and cabbage, I just used cauliflowers to make it low-carb friendly. However, the stew is highly customizable, use other vegetables and protein you personally enjoy.

This playful and elegant take on French bistro classic steak au poivre features bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs that are pan-fried until golden then simmered in a peppery pan sauce until tender and juicy. Cognac is a vital flavour component in au poivre to create a rich, complex, and velvety pan sauce. If you don’t want to use alcohol, just use more chicken broth with a splash of Worcestershire sauce instead. Crème fraîche and Dijon mustard add a lush creaminess and tang that temper the heat of the peppercorns. If crème fraîche isn’t at hand, use full fat sour cream or heavy cream and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice or splash of sherry vinegar.

Pollastre amb bolets translates from Catalan as "chicken with mushrooms". It is a traditional Catalan comfort food featuring chicken slowly cooked in a casserole with local wild mushrooms, garlic, herbs, and a splash of wine or/and brandy.
A picada, often referred to as the "Catalan pesto," is a traditional Catalan paste of crushed toasted nuts (almonds and hazelnuts are standard), garlic, and a little olive oil with other possible additions like bread, saffron, chocolate, parsley, etc., used to thicken and flavour the sauce without relying on heavy cream or flour.

A wholesome, flavour-packed one-pan wonder loaded with juicy roasted chicken legs, tender vegetables, and extra creamy avocado wedges. A perfect low carb, high protein meal! Baking avocados gives them an extra-creamy texture, but you can simply slice fresh avocado over the top if you prefer. Use other vegetables if asparagus ain’t in season.

Bold, fiery chicken perattu or peralan is a delicacy from Kerala, India. Marinated bite-sized chicken is stir-fried with coconut oil in a blend of kashmiri chilli powder, coriander powder, curry leaves, and a freshly-ground red chilli paste until masala nicely coated on the chicken. The chicken perattu goes very well with steamed rice or chapatis. Chicken perattu is known for its dry texture and generally has heat, so tailor the level of spice based on how much you prefer.

A creamy, hearty and cheesy chicken bake bathed in a savoury custard sauce and a crispy pork rind topping. If you are not on low carb or keto diet, replace the pork rink with breadcrumbs. The acidity of the white wine and the lemon cause the cheese custard to curdle in the cooking, which doesn’t sound very appetizing, but it’s heavenly delicious. Gruyère cheese
©angiesrecipes gives the gratin a more pungent, complex, and nutty flavour profile. Opt for extra aged Cheddar
©angiesrecipes, if you prefer a milder, buttery flavour. Enjoy it with a side of salad, or crusty bread, but the pasta or potato would be a nice complement too if they fit your dietary goals.

The chicken mariantes overnight (or at least 30 minutes) in a flavourful, well-seasoned marinade of bloomed saffron, yoghurt, garlic, and lemon juice that deliver the perfect combination of acidity, sweetness, and umami - absolutely irresistible. I go for chicken thighs with the skin on and bone in, because they are nearly impossible to overcook and stay incredibly juicy. However, you can use only chicken breasts if you prefer. Adjust the cooking time and oven temperature accordingly.

These tender yet crispy ranch roast chicken drumsticks are tangy, perfectly herby, delicious and so flavorful, and ready in under an hour with less than 10 minutes of prep. Usually ranch dressing is used to toss salads or as a dip, but it also works great as a flavorful marinade for chicken thanks to the acid in buttermilk. Homemade ranch dressing with fresh herbs offers vibrant, bright flavour and freshness that store-bought alternatives can’t match. If you want to use store-bought one, then try adding some fresh herbs for a pop of green colour and aromatic depth.

The key to great pork crackling is to ensure your pork rind is perfectly dry for maximum crackling. Blasting the pork in a very hot oven to begin with to get the skin crunchy, then slow cook it for a further 90 minutes in a bath of spiced milk (inspired by the Italian classic maiale all latte or pork in milk), which makes it really moist and tender. For the crispiest crackling, make sure you don’t splash milk on the rind when you add it. You can roast some potato wedges with the pork to help soak up the milk. Alternatively, serve them with a simple mashed potato or polenta to absorb the milk sauce. I served the pork belly with a radicchio salad tossed with a red wine vinegrette (Thank you, David, for this great idea), and used the milk to bake some bread
