- 1 & 1/2 cup Wild Rice
- 500g Chicken
- 2 cups Spinach
- 1 cup shredded Carrot
- 1 cup Cucumber
- Shallots to garnish
Dressing
- 4 Tbsp Remedy Superb Seasoning Mix
- 4 scoops Seed Cycle, either phase one or phase two
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) for cooking
- 2 Tbsp Sesame Oil
- 1/4 cup Tamari (soy sauce)
- 1/4 cup Honey
- 1 Red Chilli (or two if you like extra heat), finely chopped
- 1/4 cup Peanut Butter
Toppings

Method
Step 1: Cook the Wild Rice
- Rinse and Cook: Rinse the wild rice under cold water. In a medium pot, combine the wild rice with 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45-50 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
Step 2: Prepare the Chicken
- Season and Cook: Heat a drizzle of EVOO in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
Step 3: Make the Satay Dressing
- Mix Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the Remedy Superb Seasoning Mix, Seed Cycle, sesame oil, tamari, honey, chopped red chilli, and peanut butter. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Step 4: Assemble the Dish
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked wild rice, sliced chicken, spinach, shredded carrot, and cucumber. Pour the satay dressing over the top and toss to coat everything evenly.
- Garnish and Serve: Transfer the mixture to serving bowls. Garnish with chopped shallots, fresh coriander, and a sprinkle of peanuts. Serve immediately and enjoy!
The Benefits of Seed Cycling
Incorporating seed cycling into your meals is an easy and delicious way to support your hormonal health. Seed cycling involves consuming specific seeds during different phases of your menstrual cycle to help balance hormones naturally. Here’s a quick overview:
- Follicular Phase (Day 1 to 14): Flax seeds and pumpkin seeds help boost estrogen levels and support ovulation.
- Luteal Phase (Day 15 to 28): Sunflower seeds and sesame seeds aid in progesterone production and maintaining hormonal balance.
