Here are a few delicious Paleo recipes to try:
Baked Lemon Herb Salmon:
– Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
– Place salmon fillets on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
– Drizzle olive oil over the fillets and sprinkle with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and lemon zest.
– Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
– Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
Cauliflower Fried Rice:
– Cut a head of cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice grains.
– Heat a tablespoon of coconut oil in a pan and add chopped onions, minced garlic, and any desired vegetables (e.g., carrots, bell peppers, peas).
– Stir-fry the vegetables until they soften, then add the cauliflower rice.
– Season with coconut aminos (a Paleo-friendly soy sauce alternative), salt, and pepper.
– Cook for a few minutes until the cauliflower rice is tender.
– Push the rice to one side of the pan and crack an egg into the empty space, scrambling it. Mix it with the rest of the ingredients.
– Optional: Add cooked shrimp, diced chicken, or chopped nuts for extra protein and texture.
Grilled Lemon Herb Chicken:
– In a mixing bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped fresh herbs (such as rosemary, thyme, and parsley), salt, and pepper.
– Place chicken breasts in a Ziploc bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight.
– Preheat the grill to medium heat.
– Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and discard any excess liquid.
– Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
– Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
