Hey Ethan, I love your healthy videos! I've got a lot of inspiration from them. Could you please make a "healthy meal" playlist on your channel so we can have all of them in one place?

[@MrDancingrobots]

Yes please!

[@Lostadvent]

Yesssssss

[@rachelmel]

Awesome idea!

[@trayloningram529]

Oh heck yesssss!

[@xsystem1771]

Count me in!

[@Ross516]

People say this all the time, but the way Ethan eats with such gusto makes me absolutely believe hes made something really good

[@eDWICHt]

Nothing beats a spritz of Fresh Lemon Zeus! But seriously, cheers for the recipes! Those will - as per usually - come in very handy!

[@EthanChlebowski]

A little spritz of citrus is so good in so many dishes.

[@1029blue]

I thought I was the only one who heard that. 😄

[@ChrisLoyen]

I came here from ctrl+f Zeus

[@Zraknul]

A little bit of Zeus really kicks your every day lamb to demi-god level. All in good fun, we know what you mean Ethan. Great video.

[@NoonDragoon]

I'm one of those families who has a weird 3PM dinner for Thanksgiving, and I always feel hungry again later in the day. These short dinners are totally my jam and will save me from gorging on leftovers the same night.

[@SkepNick]

Amazing easy recipes, man. Down 75ibs since prepping those low cal high protein chicken wraps you can freeze. I even customize myself! Appreciate you brother 🙏

[@matg258]

You are the king of easy enough, healthy enough and TASTY meals. The cooking middle class GOAT. Whenever I need inspo, your channel is the first place I go, and generally the last place too.

[@evancollinsoffical]

Can we see a video on how recreate seasonings like the taco seasoning, the chicken taco seasoning, stir-fry seasoning, and more of those ready to go packets? It would also be great to see a cost break down and how much money we would save from just using the correct spices

[@Indomatic]

Not sure why I've waited this long to subscribe. Your videos are extremely informative, and easy to follow.

[@EthanChlebowski]

Welcome aboard!

[@karanjhajj3554]

Missed these high protein low cal videos! Glad to see them make a come back - they've been a huge inspiration to my cooking!!

[@boothgoodies6348]

Loving not only the healthy recipes but that the cuisines are so different from your typical holiday fare. Gotta do this for Christmas!

[@hollywalker665]

You should put fresh mustard greens and scallions in your ginger chicken.

[@electroreviews01]

Ethan, your recipes are wonderfully pragmatic yet so flavorful. I love your palate. Thank you for sharing this.

[@addieburkam2204]

I made the chicken tinga last night in a bowl form - rice, refried beans, avocado, salsa etc. it was so good !! Thanks for the inspo

[@Michsomething]

Love that these are simple but full of flavor. I enjoy your channel.

[@MindaRox]

Super appreciate the healthy and easy recipes Ethan!

[@pur3_kill.]

thanks for making these healthy recipes that don't skip on taste, I'm thinking about getting into some calisthenics once i leave school and these are going to save my ass

[@clementverdier2655]

I just love this channel. Everytime a new video is released, I’m just so excited to watch it. I miss cooking now. Absolutely amazing video, your channel makes me happy. I am very honest. 😊

[@theresaanndiaz3179]

It cracks me up that your refrigerator door is full of condiments just like mine! I am sitting here trying to decide what to cook tonight ( tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I've been prepping and cooking whatever I can before hand). I had forgotten about chicken tinga, it's really good.

[@DAISNAID214]

Alternatively to the chicken tinga method you propose, Internet Shaquille has a crock pot variation which is good too. Yours looks a little more flavourful though tbh. His is more of a super hands off type.

[@tess711rp]

I have made Internet Shaquille’s recipe and can attest it is delicious! I’ve also made it with beef chuck for a braised beef. Equally as delicious as his chicken tinga recipe.

[@ramen2791]

ethans was very low flavor for me. kinda wasted some chicken on what amounts to spicy tomato sauce with no bold flavors.

[@zvezdoblyat]

​@@ramen2791I mean... You can clearly imagine what it would taste like based on the ingredients alone. That's on you

[@draven_sword7092]

I used a made-in pan I got through one of your links a while back to make a dish for Thanksgiving today. My father kept mentioning how high quality the pan felt. (It was the 12" stainless steel pan) I'll be purchasing one for him next week!

[@mikek2876]

Best videos to encourage me to continue eating healthy. I fall in the holiday trap but this gave me good ideas!!

[@Ishimarisan]

Came for the great recipes, stayed for the “lemon Zeus”.

[@zackarywhite6543]

Same

[@Aiyukgang]

All hail Zeus, god of the lemons

[@ArghBeast]

Dude just wanna say this. I happily wait for your videos and now especially for your mail. There's just so many stuff I can see and you collect everything I enjoy. These up here? Great as usual.

[@davidj7201]

Just made the tinga -- absolutely love it, it was delicious!

[@kaemincha]

100% gonna try the frozen chicken tinga. I have been on the hunt for some good freezer meat recipes that don't have terrible textures.

[@TromboneMaster95]

I’ve really been in a quesadilla mood lately, I think this is gonna push me over the edge to make some

[@noobienormie]

Just tried the chiicken tinga recipe and I made a very spicy mistake- I misread "2-3 chipotles in adobo" as "2-3 cans of chipotles in adobo" 🥵 very tasty though in spite of the spice level!

[@lanacahe]

Same thing happened to me

[@brianh2287]

I love this channel. I have learned so much from you Ethan, thank you !

[@user-wt7mf8op1k]

Dude... You're a genius !

[@houstonroberts8569]

Awesome vid, thanks!

[@antoniovargas1146]

What a great concept for a video. Thank you.

[@ellymacrae792]

Made the snack wrap tonight, so quick and tasty

[@lucashagen4383]

Thank you for uploading just in time for me to eat breakfast

[@1RobinSparkles]

Thank you always love your videos!

[@colddash5598]

Man you’re always pre prepping (awesome) and freezing for longer storage (awesomer) with simple prep ideas….(also awesome scale) Have you ever done a “this is my freezer” for organizing proper usage/time/etc requirements and ideas? Like utilizing space, rotating easily, pairing, comparing prepped into a shopping list for fresh, etc… Cheap, healthy, and easy are always things I want to see👍✌️

[@Pyreleaf]

If you recall your pork carnitas video, I actually do chicken tinga almost exactly the same way. The sauce I use is more or less identical (although I use significantly more garlic and chipotle), but where I depart is that I blend the sauce with a carton of chicken stock and stew skinless boneless chicken thighs in it until they fall apart and the sauce is reduced.

[@sandyr1789]

Ethan - my favorite is already the Ginger Chicken!! I am also a big ginger fan and look forward to it! Tinga Chicken will quickly follow after that as I enjoy hot & spicy. I will have to change the lamb with angus beef but looking forward to adding that to my high protein meal selection. TYSM!

[@Bigrigjeff]

Happy holidays to you also! Great video good content very time appropriate, excellent! Please keep them coming!

[@mylittleparody2277]

Nice recipes to try! Thank you

[@bombiarz]

great inspiration - as always!

[@wassaapRA]

Very helpful as we approach the holiday season! Been trying to cut down meat, so any vegetarian alternatives for future videos would be really beneficial.

[@bigwillyalex]

Hey Ethan, your channel is my favorite cooking channel. It is my go to when I’m not sure what I want to eat, and has big Good Eats vibes ( my families favorite show when I was growing up). Recently I have been looking into the Slow Carb Diet by Tim Ferris, and was wondering if you would do a video based around that. Thanks!

[@proteinpapi7595]

This is my favourite series

[@workoutwitharu]

awesome video! thanks Ethan!

[@DanielASchaeffer]

I love the way the video cut away as you were trying to roll all of that filling into that tiny little lavash bread

[@GryphonDes]

Perfect timing, I've been doing a ton of wraps lately :D

[@shankariab1687]

Thanks mate, happy xmas, happy Thanksgiving and good luck with your yt channel ✌️

[@barbaracarbone4658]

Mmmmm that ginger chicken sounds good. Thanks. Happy Thanksgiving. 🦃

[@squeak805]

Try the ginger chicken seasoned with fish sauce and white pepper instead... and throw in ciltrano at the end too! It's the same flavor profile as soup kenji made with lettuce, ginger, leftover chicken, little bit of fish sauce, little white pepper, chicken broth, and leftover rice. chef kiss

[@MatthewBuntyn]

For anyone that has trouble finding xiosheng wine, Martin Yan (Yan Can Cook) uses dry sherry as a substitute.

[@bierbrauer11]

Damn this is great! I like making chicken tinga and it’s been a while. Never thought about it as a healthy alternative! All of these look fantastic and handy!

[@seizeimmunity4113]

Hey Ethan, you should do a comparison video of different Prosciutto. American mades like Del Duca and italian made. Btw absolutely love your channel and content. Ive been completely hooked on your videos, keep up the great work and much love from VA.

[@conan_der_barbar]

always up for more healthy dishes! only wish you'd do less meat recipes, I try to eat it only every few days

[@RocketJoshua]

More of this!! 🔥🔥

[@timmay9699]

Lemon zuice. 🤣

[@2010MiCkEyMoUsE]

My Grandma always had Thanksgiving ready between 1pm or 2pm. Which was perfect so we could make a turkey sandwich later in the evening while playing cards.

[@Foremangrill]

Hope we can get more fast high protein videos like this

[@Zraknul]

Tried out the Chicken Tinga Quesadillas. Really good.

[@MKW_K9]

I just made the quesadillas- damn! I was expecting them to be good, but not THAT good! Definitely making these again!!!

[@jordanschmidt9772]

Don’t forget to also enjoy yourself this holiday season!

[@aaronbailey9454]

Making this tonight! They were out of lavash wraps at the store so I’m using naan instead.

[@melb27]

Gonna make this chicken recipe today

[@mikejamesg]

Bow before Lemon Zeus ⚡️ 🍋

[@shellyt556]

Good man! Save for the big meals

[@jamesleng6231]

After Thanksgiving I have 2 birthday to attend, 3 holiday work parties, Christmas dinners and I go on vacation after Christmas through News Years. I anticipate gaining 20 pounds this month.

[@aviewerman]

Hey Ethan! I've been binging your videos lately and was wondering if you could give us some insight in how many calories AND nutrional values do different types of food (e.g. potatoes, broccoli) lose or gain with the different methods of cooking but ALSO the time we took to cook them (boiling vegetables for more minutes, for example) Thank you in advance

[@Gabrielle711G]

Made the chicken tinga quesadillas tonight and they were amazing! My toddler loves quesadillas but threw her quesadillas on the ground the last time I tried to sneak chicken into it. However she tore the tinga up!

[@Josh-ed7ui]

Amazing video this is great

[@jamoliddinergash-zoda451]

So useful

[@hollywalker665]

Everything looks 💣, for sure..😋

[@et.intuitive]

I just found your channel and can't stop watching all your content, it's so thorough and well made! Definitely developing a crush on you 😅👨‍🍳

[@Dad_Lyon]

I've accidentally made tinga a few times. Great for tomato enthusiasts.

[@araz1977]

Absolutely lovely... ❤

[@chasecomfort3940]

Very cool idea instead of jumping in on the saturated 'what to make for the holiday itself' train.

[@mikeybeeee07]

ok but where is the golf course snacks video??? I'll bring a breakfast (or non breakfast depending on tee time) burrito to the course and that is kinda warm but still works and I split it with whoever of the 4-some I'm paired with. But aside from the classic dog at the turn, what are some good snacks to make to throw in the cooler and can be eaten cold aside from your typical sandwich.

[@StormyDoesVR]

Seeing Ethan freak out when he checks the chicken temp and says the target is 150 but he's 20 degrees over made me laugh so much 😂

[@molaganthe4090]

Yeahh u got the bussin Go Chu Jang!!! ❤

[@oregonsenior4204]

omigosh I can skin fresh ginger with a SPOON! Thanks, Ethan!

[@VathSophanin]

Good recipe

[@Thekikoblazko]

for the chicken I would sear it in the same pot you're gonna make the sauce later, so you can deglaze it and incorporate that to the sauce.

[@50sKid]

THANK YOU, it is absolutely 100% weird when people eat thanksgiving “dinner” at 2 or 3pm!!

[@baseddepartment9656]

It is weird, but sometimes you have to get the kids home from grandma's before their bedtime and that's genuinely what you need to do to make it happen.

[@embreedowling]

For our fam, it’s not weird because we usually eat appetizers and drink wine/cocktails until actual thanksgiving dinner at 7. It just starts at 2 or 3. More time with the fam so I’m not complaining!

[@50sKid]

@@embreedowlingsome people eat the actual turkey at 2pm

[@embreedowling]

@@50sKid I would never get all the cooking done by then lol @baseddepartment9656 has a good point though. Our kids usually fall asleep at thanksgiving, so just doing everything earlier would make sense

[@mrhydrojefe]

Thanks for the videos! What size chipotles in adobo cans are you using?

[@Artofcarissa]

And here I was thinking “when do you stop meal prepping before the holidays? How can you gauge the right time with leftovers without relying on takeout?” Of course Ethan Chlebowski’s comes in for the win

[@MoZz..]

im going to make both things.

[@jfnoxus]

Keep the white bits of your green onion so you can grow more green onion at home.

[@mikecook7683]

Gonna try the chicken tinga for sure!

[@kRissV97]

Might I suggest if you're stir frying chicken breast to marinade with some baking soda, I find that it helps keep the breast tender.

[@smellypatel5272]

It doesn't help with tenderizing but it does help with velveting which is how Chinese American food has that typical nice texture

[@TheTravelTechBear]

Not so healthy, but we tried stuffing waffles with a waffle press four years ago which were amazing! Thanks for your videos!!

[@MKisFeelinSpicy]

Every time I watch one of your videos, I think to myself, "I should really get another freezer..." 😆

[@imac6]

Lemon Zeus 💪 great stuff man! As always

[@MagusDouken]

I think the thing I feaar the most is the leftovers after the big meals. Its just me and my stepdad, but he still insists on getting an 11 lb ham for just the two of us, so for me, what I would need are options to use up that ham in more than a grill or sandwich

[@audkorra6450]

Try chopping up some ham and making an egg scramble with green peppers, onions, and cheese :)

[@hallaloth3112]

Use it in a soup

[@Brodmann312]

When I know my household will get tired of something, I immediately portion out and freeze the extra for future use. That way you can reduce prep time for your future self and not worry about 4 days of non-stop ham.

[@paulinamorel2977]

Hi Ethan, new subscriber here and loving your channel! Question: how much chipotle powder and adobo sauce would you add to sub for the chipotle peppers in adobo? I can’t get that at my store

[@sanjayjeram4238]

Could you make the tinga recipe in a slow cooker?

[@charon0815]

A series where u invent good recipes out of food items that get a bad rep tastwise but are healthy would be amazing. For example liver. (Very healthy but almost noone eats it because they are afraid to cook with it)

[@shannonschwab3754]

I have already tried the chicken tinga and ginger 🤤🤤🤤. I have a recipe for chicken tinga but it a little labor intensive. Yours is easy and taaaaaaaasty! Where are the macros on your webpage?

[@SourdoughVideo]

God tier strategy: use the turkey that falls off the bones when you make turkey stock to make the tinga. The meat has lost much of its flavor to the stock anyway and it’s fall apart tender. Perfect high protein sub for the chicken breast that saves money and uses up leftovers

[@makikiukas]

Great video as always, but you forgot to check the audio levels. Some parts are way louder than others.

[@hallaloth3112]

When I do any sort of stirfry in the wok I think I overdo the Veggies. . .as in I add waay too many. The average stirfry for me has at least four veggies in large amounts. . . there is usually just enough room to stir in the meat to reheat it.

[@studium-]

Ethan, how did you get your chicken to form grabbable chunks when frozen? Won't it just form into one solid frozen block? Do you hammer it a bit with a meat tenderizer?

[@MrHelllllloooooo]

I wonder if you could make the Ginger Chicken with the left over turkey?
