My lovely wife made the Sage Butter Chicken with Lemony Spring Greens (minus peas for my portion). I did the air fried popcorn chicken and prawns done the same way

What I do is put the air fryer on high, cut up 2 chicken breasts into chunks, put in a mixing bowl, sprinkle with cayenne pepper, sweet smoked paprika and fajita seasoning. I mix together. Then put into the warmed air fryer. I sprinkle some more fajita seasoning lightly and cook, turning intuitively once with another light sprinkle of fajita. When it looks right I take a large chunk out, cut in half to ensure cooked.Looks wonderful. How do you make the popcorn chicken? Is it just coated with oil, s&p or do you have a specific seasoning mix?
This thread is turning into another version of Carnivore Corner. Isn't there any vegetarian real food?

No oil. It is important to watch the cooking time, I just go on instinct and testing.Thank you. Sounds and looks great. No oil though? I’d have expected it to dry out a bit.
don’t know whether to feel proud or ashamed that Paul and I I ate the whole 3lb joint between us.
Ribeye and crab sounds good @Hotpepper20000
I’ve been on reduced dairy too. Just bought some 0% Fage today to test a theory - that it’s causing gut issues. Have been off the other suspects for over a week, so hopefully a fair trial!
On the move today. Had 4 Nando’s wings leftover from yesterday for my train journey, but decided they weren’t enough. Picked up a bunless bacon burger with grilled onions at Five Guys on the station and some Serious Pig snacking cheese. Delighted to find that the snacking cheese has a PE value of just over 1 due to the type of cheese used. Yay!
Dinner once home was mince fried with onions and 2 eggs. Just followed up with some Fage 0%.
Hope the 0% Fage isn’t the cause of the gut issues, I know you enjoy it. I stopped eating the full fat Greek because of exactly that, I’m finding the 0% one is generally ok though, provided I don’t go mad with it.
To be honest, it may need to go anyway as I massively overeat it. Just want to know whether it’s got to go for physical reasons or not!
