Tahini Chicken (Gut Healthy Recipe)

Here is a recipe for a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any night of the week. I'm talking about tahini chicken, yum!

It is not only delicious, but it's also great for your gut. 

The inclusion of tahini, a paste made from ground sesame seeds, is a great source of healthy fats and minerals, including calcium and magnesium which are vital for gut health. 

The sesame seeds also provide fiber, which is important for promoting healthy digestion and preventing constipation.

Additionally, the vegetables used in this recipe, such as carrots and cauliflower, are also great for gut health.

Carrots are rich in prebiotics, which are the food that gut-friendly bacteria feed on. 

The inclusion of sherry vinegar also has health benefits, as it is fermented, it contains probiotics which are beneficial bacteria that help to maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria.

Lastly, this recipe is versatile, it can be served over rice or pasta, an can be enjoyed warm or cold. The dish can be paired with a green salad, which is also a great source of fiber and vitamins, making it a well-rounded gut-friendly meal.

If you happen to have leftovers, just stick it in the fridge for 3-4 days

Overall, this tahini chicken recipe is a great option for anyone looking for a delicious and healthy meal that also supports gut health.
