Do rubs have calories?

Please tell me my food looks good so I can eat it.

sexy af 10/10 would fuck that bowl

Depends if there's sugar in the rub or not.

small amounts of carbs, usually, so yeah

I hate cooked veggies. How do people stomach them? It seems wrong to me.

When I think of vegetables I think of cold, raw and hard....not warm, cooked and soft.

Also..

There's nothing better than a cold fresh raw salad after eating a hot steak.

You're too kind, thank you.

There is in this stuff but the label claims 0 calories per quarter tablespoon. I think I'm putting snake oil on my chicken.

Truthfully I think its years of having mushy cooked veggies shoved down my throat by my folks that makes me crave them now.

Any tips on how to make chicken more brown? I do 2 tablespoons of honey/Soy sauce/ water, but the chicken ends up being still white with little tint of brown, how do I make it really juicy lookin?

Are you grilling or using a pan?

Using a pan, Watch Laura in the kitchen on how to make Chicken stir fry, I kinda used what I have around, but the chicken breast was the frozen one from Costco that I let it thaw out over night and cut into little pieces. Could it be that I need to add some starch or something thicker?

Starch would make your sauce a bit thicker, I can't say for sure how it will affect your chicken. Do you cover your pan when your chicken cooks? Covering the pan makes the top of the chicken cook from the trapped steam. This seals in the juices inside the chicken.

what is that? chicken, but what are the other things?

How the fuck do you burn chicken

*blackened. Do you even cook, bruh?

I would eat the fuck out of it and I just ate.

Chicken, grilled squash, zucchini, mushrooms, and there are some black beans hiding in there.

The chicken isn't burned, ingredients in the rub taste better when they char up.

Yeah, 1/4 tablespoon is about two pieces of chicken. Snake oil, indeed. Just like Ritz crackers are trans-fat free, even though they contain hydrogenated oil, and spray oil is fat free. Fat free fat, fucking amazing.

You can thank the USDA for these lies.

The shit I read about bread is astounding. There's dozens of different types of overly processed grains that all names that would make one assume they're healthy. I need to start making my own rubs.

It's half/half, usually start with the cover on so it cooks it quicker and half way down I take the cover off and start mixing the pan.

You could try cooking your chicken breasts whole and prep your sauce/veggies separately. Keeping your breasts covered and whole helps them retain more juices. You just let them sit a minute or two before cutting them up and adding them to your stir fry.

One big trick is 1 "calorie" is really a kilocalorie, and the rule for rounding is pretty lax.

So if you're 500 actual calories of fat, you can round down to say zero kilocalories.

The chicken taste is not bad, I'm not worried about that, and I cook the chicken first, put it on a plate, cook the veggies, place them on different plate, take some garlic break it up, put it on the pan and let it sizzle, place the chicken for a minute, then add the veggies and the sauce mix, cover it up and wait a minute, then let it open and keep mixing. What I am trying to get is for the chicken to be less "frail" and more "saucy" looking, imagine having the chicken from a take out, the chicken is covered with the sauce and it ends up being really wet in a way, idk if this is better, or am I just being a sperg about it.
