Grain-Free Chicken Long Rice
This Chicken Long Rice recipe is not only grain-free, but has just a handful of delicious ingredients that come together quickly for a great weeknight meal. With its Asian influence, this dish packs a lot of rich umami flavor and is highly versatile in terms of what kind of noodles you use. For those without dietary restrictions, classic rice noodles are a good choice, but corn- or wheat-based noodles can work too. For those on the autoimmune protocol, you can use spiralized veggies like zucchini, summer squash, or sweet potato or shirataki noodles, which are my personal favorite due to their close resemblance to rice noodles. Whatever you choose, this dish is sure to become a quick-and-easy favorite!

I know diet change can feel overwhelming. I started the autoimmune protocol at a time when only four other people were writing about it, and over the years, I’ve striven to give you the resources I wish I’d had when I got started. Not just recipes, but ways to implement them. My first ebook 28 Days of AIP is a meal plan that will help you get going (or get back on the wagon) with as little fuss as possible. With a variety of simple, delicious recipes, plenty of leftovers so you don’t spend all your free time in the kitchen, and shopping lists ready to go, all you have to do is follow the plan, then sit down and enjoy your meal!
