  1. One reason I think people in the US at least are so fat is the portion sizes, that is, people think they need to eat a lot per sitting. A case in point, I was watching Kenji Lopez Alt do crab cakes, and he had 3 of them made up, one small, one medium and one larger for him, his wife and 3 year old daughter and several people kept saying they'd eat them all in one sitting, but I think they also forget there will be other sides to go along with the crab cakes too. That said, I do find I'm watching my portion sizes, especially when it comes to pasta and rice as both are hypoglycemic. Pasta is not as high as white rice though as it runs a 46, whilst white rice is 64, so keep the portion size to about a cup to a cup and a half of either, but not both at one sitting though. That said, adding protein to either will reduce the hypoglycemic tendency of each, or so I've read and that is often how I eat pasta and rice when eating white rice. I do white and brown, but brown takes longer to cook though.

  2.  @Assassin2715  Not if you use roast, like 450F instead. The reason is, you can cook the inside of the meat to desired temp without burning the skin as it'll brown nicely. I think it's all done within 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through so you get both sides of the meat and then toss the veggies so they cook evenly.

  3. Most definitely, I have done it with chicken thighs quite a bit, just drizzle olive oil, salt and pepper over each thigh before placing on the pan, leaving skin on, bone in if that's what I have, otherwise, boneless, skinless will do. You can also do this with the breasts too. I tend to prefer bone in, skin on though.

  4. Might be new to you, but it's not a new idea at all however.
