Salt and pepper chicken and chips is my husband’s favourite meal from the Chinese, so when I set about the process of making a Slimming friendly option, I had my work cut out for me.

No word of a lie though, he ended up proclaiming that this version is every bit as good – if not better – as its takeaway alternative. (And I’m positive that he wasn’t just being polite).

It’s earned a regular place on our list of weekly meals, and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

Using Spicentice to make your Slimming World salt and pepper chicken and chips

To get that authentic salt and pepper taste, you need quite an extensive combination of seasoning and spice.

Though you could of course make your own mix from scratch, I highly recommend trying Spicentice’s salt & pepper mix.

It makes things super simple, and the flavour really can’t be rivalled.

When placing your order, remember to use discount code SLIMMINGV10 to save 10%.

Just because you’re following Slimming World or you’re trying to lead a healthier lifestyle, it doesn’t mean that you can’t indulge in some of your good old favourites.

It’s just a case of being savvy in the kitchen, and finding substitutes and methods that deliver all the flavour, but without a gigantic calorie or Syn count.

Here are a few ideas that you might want to try…

This Goan prawn dish is definitely my favourite curry to serve at home. If you want to go all out and make an occasion of it, check out my onion bhajis and Bombay potatoes too.

If a chicken kebab is more your thing, then you’ll love this Syn free version. Serve with chips, salad, and pitta bread for the ultimate Friday night feast.

If honey chilli chicken is your usual go-to order, then be sure to check out this lighter version. It has 4 Syns per serving, and it’s worth every single one!

3 garlic cloves finely chopped

4 tbsp soy sauce

1/2 tsp sweetener

Bunch of spring onions sliced

Low calorie cooking spray

Add the chicken to a bowl and sprinkle over half of the sachet of Spicentice Salt & Pepper mix. Mix together and leave to marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Spritz 2 baking trays with low calorie spray. Place the chicken on one, and the chipped potatoes on the other. Spritz with low calorie spray, and bake both in the oven for 35 minutes or until cooked through. (Alternatively, you can cook the chips in an Actifry).

Once the chicken and chips are cooked, set aside.

Heat a wok over a medium heat, and spritz with low calorie spray. Stir fry the garlic for a few seconds, then add the onions and peppers. Stir fry for 5-10 minutes and then add the chicken and chips to the pan.

Add spring onions, remaining spice mix, soy sauce, sweetener, and 2 tbsp water, and stir fry for a few minutes.

Serve and enjoy!
