A fantastic stir-fry as delicious as your favorite takeout but made healthier. Why? Because I lightened up the sauce using a smaller amount of sweetener compared to most teriyaki sauces. I used honey and Stevia and low-carb zoodles instead of pasta noodles. This dish is protein-rich and packed with fiber. Each serving has 291 calories and 5 grams of fat.

Skinny Teriyaki Chicken and Zoodles Stir-Fry

cornstarch

water

soy sauce

honey

Truvia (Stevia)

onions, (chopped)

chicken

olive oil

sesame seeds (for topping (optional))

In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water; set aside.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, add soy sauce, ¼ cup water, honey, Truvia, garlic, and ginger. Bring it to a simmer. Stir in cornstarch mixture and mix until thickened, about 2 minutes; Pour into a small bowl and place in the freezer to chill. Set a timer for 30 minutes so you don’t forget it. Remove from the freezer and set aside.

In a large Ziploc plastic bag or large bowl, combine ¼ cup chilled soy sauce mixture and chicken; marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight, turning the plastic bag.

In the meantime, make the zucchini noodles (zoodles). Place zoodles in a microwave-safe bowl and cook for about 5-6 minutes, to soften. (I use this step so you don’t need a lot of oil when cooking with chicken).

Add onions to a small microwave bowl and cook in the microwave for 2 minutes, to soften.

Heat olive oil in a large, nonstick pan over medium heat. Add chicken, including marinade from plastic bag and onions. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in zoodles and reserved soy sauce mixture until well combined, about 2 minutes. If desired,  sprinkle all over stir fry with 1 teaspoon sesame seeds.

To Die For…This potato salad is over-the-top DELICIOUS!!! Probably the best I’ve ever tasted. I can’t wait for you to make it. Serve hot or cold, guaranteed you’ll love it. Each side serving has 84 calories and 3 grams of fat. I love it so much, sometimes I serve it as the main course with a side salad. In that case, make the serving size 1 cup. 

Sensational Loaded Ranch Potato Salad Made Skinny (hot or cold)

Dutch baby gold potatoes

bacon, (see shopping tips)

+ 1 tablespoon scallions, chopped (green part only)

Best Skinny Ranch Dressing or your favorite light ranch dressing

cheddar cheese, shredded

black pepper and salt,

Put potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and cook until soft (10-15 minutes). Do not overcook. Drain and rinse in cold water. Cool before using.

To cook bacon: Line a plate with several paper towels. Place 6 bacon strips on the paper. Cover with several paper towels.  Cook in microwave for 4-5 minutes until well done and crispy. Add cooked strips to clean paper towels and blot. Crumble bacon.

In a large bowl, add cooled, cooked potatoes and all remaining ingredients. Gently toss, using a rubber spatula so the potatoes stay in tack and don’t get mushy! Season with a little salt and pepper.

Store in refrigerator until ready to use. Will keep for a few days. When ready to eat, serve cold or heat in microwave until warmed.
