Grilled Chicken Shawarma

 

This Grilled Chicken Shawarma is a delectable dish that maintains traditional flavors while being healthier. Chicken, a lean protein source, is marinated and grilled instead of fried, cutting down on fat while preserving taste.

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Add chicken breasts to the mixture, ensuring they're fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked, with an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  4. Let the grilled chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it.
  5. Serve the chicken atop a salad, in whole-grain wraps, or with grilled vegetables.

The use of grilling instead of pan-frying reduces fat content, and spices enhance flavor without added calories.

Baked Falafel Patties

 

Baked Falafel Patties offer the traditional falafel taste without the extra oil from frying. Chickpeas provide a rich source of protein and fiber, making them an excellent choice for weight management.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups dried chickpeas, soaked overnight and drained
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a food processor, combine chickpeas, onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Pulse until the mixture is granular but holds together when pressed.
  3. Form the mixture into small patties and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Brush the patties with olive oil and sprinkle sesame seeds on top if desired.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until golden brown and crisp.
  6. Serve with a side salad or in whole-grain pita bread.

The baking method eliminates the need for excessive oil, keeping these patties low in fat while remaining high in plant-based nutrition.

Cauliflower Pilaf

 

Cauliflower Pilaf is a delightful alternative to traditional rice pilaf, offering fewer carbohydrates and calories. It's a creatively healthy dish that still satisfies the tastes and textures expected during Eid meals.

Ingredients:

  • 1 large cauliflower, grated or riced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup carrots, diced
  • 1/2 cup peas
  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Handful of cilantro leaves for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion until soft and translucent.
  2. Add garlic, carrots, and peas, cooking for another 5 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  3. Stir in the grated cauliflower, cumin, turmeric, salt, and pepper, mixing well to combine all ingredients.
  4. Cover the skillet and let the mixture steam for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add toasted almonds and toss gently.
  6. Garnish with cilantro leaves before serving.

Replacing rice with cauliflower reduces carbohydrate content, aiding in weight management while increasing vegetable intakes like vitamins and minerals.

Got questions? We have answers.

Do your plans include prescriptions and medications?

Curex plans cover everything from reviewing your medical intake to providing prescription medications, with free shipping included. There are no extra or hidden charges. Prescriptions are issued only after a medical provider reviews your information to confirm that the medication is suitable for you. Our service includes continuous support and regular follow-ups to ensure your treatment stays on track.

Our clinicians may order labs and additional medications for you, which would not be covered by the plan but for which you can use your insurance.

Please note: Compounded medications are tailored to individual needs or used in case of shortages, but they are not FDA-approved for safety or effectiveness. A prescription is required. Results may vary from person to person.

What medications do your providers prescribe?

We prioritize a personalized approach to your health. If your medical provider prescribes medication, options may include GLP-1 treatments such as compounded semaglutide (the active ingredient in Wegovy®* and Ozempic®*). Our providers prescribe only combination treatments not available at your local pharmacy that may include vitamin B12, etc. to help you achieve your goals faster.

Depending on your treatment goals, other medications such as metformin may also be considered. We recognize the importance of managing side effects, so your care plan might include medication to ease symptoms like nausea. Your well-being is always our top priority!

Please note that compounded medications are customized to meet individual patient needs and are not FDA-approved for safety or effectiveness. A prescription is necessary. Results may vary from person to person.

Curex and its pharmacy partners do not have any association with Novo Nordisk.

Will I be prescribed semaglutide if I sign up?

Your health journey is unique, and we tailor our care to match. Any prescriptions, including semaglutide, will be based on the expert assessment of the medical provider matched with you through our platform. You can trust that your treatment plan will be personalized to fit your specific needs. And if semaglutide is not prescribed, we will provide a full refund.

What is compounded medication?

Compounding involves creating customized medications to meet the specific needs of individual patients. For instance, a patient may require a liquid version of a medication that is only available in tablet form. Pharmacies can also compound medications using FDA-approved drugs that are on the FDA’s shortage list.

These compounded medications are made by state-licensed pharmacies that follow both federal and state regulations, including quality standards. However, when compounded in accordance with these laws, these medications are not subject to FDA approval and are not evaluated for safety or effectiveness.

Is compounded medication the same as generic medication?

Compounded medications differ from generic drugs. Generics require FDA approval by demonstrating bio-equivalence to the brand-name drug. In contrast, compounded medications are not FDA-approved. They are made based on a personalized prescription that may not be commercially available elsewhere or when a drug appears on the FDA’s shortage list. Compounding pharmacies must have the proper licensed facilities and comply with state and federal regulations before dispensing these medications.

Is insurance required?

No, Curex doesn’t require insurance. We offer clear and simple pricing, along with affordable medication options, making it easy and accessible to take care of your health.

Can I pay with an FSA or HSA card?

Yes! You can pay with your HSA or FSA card.

Can you prescribe Ozempic®* or Wegovy®*?

Our providers focus on personalized medications and dosages that aren’t commercially available at your local pharmacy. While we don’t prescribe Ozempic®* or Wegovy®* directly, we may prescribe treatments containing the same active ingredient. These medications are specially compounded for you by a licensed pharmacy to meet your specific needs.

Are video visits with a provider required?

Our providers will review your information 100% online. Depending on where you live and the specifics of your medical history, our providers may require you to have a video visit or asynchronous visit via text message. If prescribed, you’ll get unlimited online access to message your provider as needed for follow-ups, adjustments, and answers to your questions.
