My Secret Weapon Fat Loss Meal!

Introduction

This tutorial will guide you through preparing a delicious and healthy fat-loss meal that includes crispy potato chips, perfectly baked chicken breast, and air-fried broccoli. This meal is not only simple to make but also nutritious and satisfying, making it a great addition to your meal prep routine.

Step 1: Prepare the Oven and Pans

• Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Line your baking pans with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
• Spray the foil with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Slice and Season the Potatoes

• Thinly slice your potatoes. Aim for slices that are as thin as possible for maximum crispiness.
• Arrange the potato slices evenly on the lined pans.
• Spray the tops of the potato slices with non-stick cooking spray.
• Sprinkle with sea salt (or light salt if that's what you have).

Step 3: Bake the Potato Chips

• Place the pans in the preheated oven.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, keeping a close eye to ensure they start to brown but do not burn.

Step 4: Prepare the Chicken

• While the potato chips are baking, line another oven-safe pan with aluminum foil and spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
• Place boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the pan.
• Season the chicken with coarse sea salt, black pepper, and any other seasonings you prefer (such as onion powder if you want to keep it simple).
• Once the potato chips are done, lower the oven temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the chicken for 25-28 minutes.

Step 5: Use the Meat Thermometer

• To ensure the chicken is cooked properly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature.
• The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 170 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal juiciness.

Step 6: Air Fry the Broccoli

• While the chicken is baking, prepare your broccoli.
• Place frozen broccoli in the air fryer basket, filling it to about halfway.
• Spray the broccoli with non-stick cooking spray and sprinkle with sea salt.
• Set the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for 15-18 minutes, depending on your preference for doneness.

Step 7: Assemble Your Meal

• Once everything is cooked, carefully remove the chicken and vegetables from the oven and air fryer.
• Plate the crispy potato chips, baked chicken, and air-fried broccoli.
• Enjoy your healthy, delicious meal!
