Atkins Diet: Low Carb Fried Chicken
In this cooking video, I detail how to make one of my staples of the diet — low carb fried chicken. You don’t have to give up the joy of fried chicken, and contrary to low fat diets, you can eat the skin too! I have fried chicken at least once a week almost. Chicken has a great amount of protein as well as delicious fat in the skin. I display 2 of the 3 methods that are among the acceptable coatings for chicken or chicken-fried foods (like Country Fried Steaks): * Parmesan Cheese – Induction friendly * Carbquik breading — I typically buy mine from Netrition or Amazon. www.amazon.com * Crushed Pork Rinds. ** not shown Just run the pork rinds through a food processor to crush the rinds into smaller pieces. You would be surprised by how tasty this is, and how little pork rinds flavor there is remaining. I had intended to show this method as well, but Wal-mart wasn’t selling them anymore. Here is the recipe for the breading: * 1 cup of Carbquik flour * 2 TBS Paprika * 1 TBS Black Pepper * Dashes of Cayenne Pepper, Chili Pepper, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Poultry Seasoning Thanks for watching my videos and subscribing for those that have. You guys are the best to keep me motivated.

No. If it is not on the acceptable foods list, then it is forbidden.

Can i eat tomatoes soup if i just take out the potatoes out?
February 11th, 2010 at 12:27 am
If all the ingredients are on the acceptable foods list, yes. If there are ingredients that are not on the list, then no — remember one cup of tomato (other vegetable) per day, and count your carbs..

Bowulf May I ask you if it is possible of keeping Protein at 200 grams daily on a Atkins Diet? and is there a lot of difference compared to a LCHF-diet
February 27th, 2010 at 4:48 pm
200grams of protein is a lot, but given a highly active person, one might need a lot of protein. Check out my high protein vs. high video for some general recommendations on how much protein to eat. I am roughly between 125-175g daily, but that’s just me.
The problem with excess protein intake is that it is converted to glucose as well which can then cause the insulin response. The short answer is active ppl should have between 1.2-1.8g per kg of body weight.

hahah.. such a terrible diet.

Hardly…

Sorry. Didn’t mean to be rude. But seriously, one may loose weight on this diet.. but as far as the holistic benefits are concerned (health, emotions, mental states etc), this is clearly a inferior way of eating/living (not to mention atrocious for the environment).
March 11th, 2010 at 2:09 am
After 6 years of living this way of eating, my holistic being could not be better. My energy is through the roof, my fitness levels are way up (marathon training and weight lifting), and mentally – I have achieved and developed the certification for a number of IT exams. As for my health, my doctor could not be more pleased with the last 6 years of annual physicals and blood work.
For the environment, well you can take those arguments elsewhere. I buy my vegetables and meat locally.

I lost 52 pounds in less than 9 months. I love low carb. I eat shrimp and carb when I want, lots of cheese, bacon, duck, beef, fish, almonds, pecans, creole cream cheese and eggs. My diet doe not makes me depressed. Being fat made me depressed………..Pass a pork rind this way………Thanks for the great dish…………

Isn’t it just magical when you find out what works for you and meets your tastes. I simply never felt like I was depriving myself of anything when I could eat something as good as real fried chicken WITH THE SKIN. I just had a plate of wings, and now I am ready to rock a 2nd workout today…

On Induction, no.
On OWL phase past run 3 (nuts and seeds), yes…

Good job and keep going!

Everyone I have EVER known who have done these stuff your face with dead animal diets look like hell! Yes you can lose weight but these diets are for people who want a diet where they don’t have to think or use common sense. Processed meat and similar foods are not going to make you healthy. Go back to nature, exercise, and for the love of God use your brains! Water, raw fruits, veggies, and exercise—don’t limit yourself on any of these.

@FORCEDANARCHY Wow way to start with a non sequitur. Actually it makes complete sense, and people have been eating this way since time in memorial. There can’t anything more natural than actually eating meat as people were HUNTER gatherers first not farmers.
As for being healthy and looking good, I can only let my doctor, 6 years of great annual physicals, wife, and race results speak for me. They brag more about my state of health and beauty better than I could.

@bowulf Going to the supermarket and buying dead animals that were caged and fattened with God knows what is really in the spirit of those original hunters that you claim to be following.
May 19th, 2010 at 4:39 am
@FORCEDANARCHY You have no idea what my shopping or hunting habits are. So go run along and find a self-grown berry to eat… I will happily eat my local butcher’s steaks and as the time comes harvesting game as well. My, my what angst the meat deprived have…
