Low FODMAP Pan Roasted Chicken with Spiced Maple Syrup is adapted from celebrity chef Matthew Kenney’s recipe. Kenney is an American chef, author and entrepreneur known for his plant and nutrition based culinary arts.
Cooking Low FODMAP Pan Roasted Chicken with Spiced Maple
Make sure to cook the chicken with its skin on, as it helps retain the flavor and juiciness. You can remove the skin afterwards. You can also get experimental and use monkfish or quail instead.
This calls for two pieces of sun dried tomatoes per serving, which most FODMAP Foodies can tolerate. Fresh tomatoes are low-FODMAP but all dried fruit or vegetables should be consumed with caution and moderation. You can also skip the sun dried tomatoes completely or replace with grape tomatoes.
Pan roasting is a two-stage process of cooking first over a stove, which helps sear the chicken and give it a golden brown crust. Next, the pan is transferred to an oven. This helps meats on bones cook more evenly without over-browning, while maintaining moistness.
Be sure to use 100 percent red chili pepper like Korean Red Chili Flakes, Gochugaru (1 Lb) By Tae-kyung.
