I don't think you have an idea how life-changing your meal prep series has been. So many great, simple, easy to make and yet very savory recipes you blessed us with took my meal prep to next level. No more bland and boring meal preps for me and I can't thank you enough for that. God bless you sir!
I have lost almost 50 pounds in the last 1.5 years. I do exercise, but the majority of that came after I started meal prepping and counting calories. I love Josh Cortis as well, but I always default to Jack's meals. He might have literally saved my life, and that's no exaggeration!
thanks mate! as a guy who's going 5X week to the gym, this helps me a lot! not anymore the same old boring food but every weekend I prepare different meals for upcoming week based on 'preps', cannot wait on a new vid and try some new flavours! keep going!!
Your fellow swede here, great video! I love me some meal prep inspiration and you make some wonderful recipes! A litlle tip is to quickly run your hands through cold water before rolling the meatballs! It makes them less sticky to your hands and easier to make.
I made this and it was absolutely amazing, I’ve never been much of a cook but you’ve changed my life with your easy to follow instructions and recipes, I especially make the taco bowls every week, thank you Chef Jack! 💪🏼
I made this last week. They’re amazing. I sub lemon or lime for the acid and maple syrup for honey. The sauce was great. The five portions did not last for five meals…that’s how good they are.
This looks delicious and easy to prep. I would probably cook my meatballs in the oven on a sheet pan but this is a recipe I will definitely try. So glad I found this channel.
I found a similar sri racha meatball recipe about a year ago and ended up replacing the rice with oven roasted cauliflower and sweet potato with a bunch of seasoning to your preference, and instead of the sri racha mayo at the end I added a bit of a tahini sauce to dip the sweet potato/cauliflower in to. Just in case anyone is getting bored of the rice!
Good looking recipe - can’t wait to try it! But your shots are consistently underexposed - I think your camera is displaying the full comp’s EV rating, which includes all the bright white you have in your kitchen, instead of center focused EV to show how your subject is lit. Have you considered boosting shadows in post to make the image pop a little more? Like the image you tweaked at 6:26. Not trying to be a dick. You’re obviously a great chef - I just think your lighting is making your meals look less appetizing than they are IRL. Brighter, juicier color will give you better mass appeal on TH-cam. You can download and compare Lagerstrom’s videos side-by-side with yours to see how the color and brightness compares to see what I mean.
Appreciate the suggestions. I’m still learning videography everyday and will always be learning same as with cooking. I’ll have a play around with it. I know that I’m not getting the best out of my camera and I’ll be the first to admit I don’t know everything that it can do. Thank you 👌
Your parents must be very proud of you, especially mum. May I ask, did you learn how to cook from your mom when you were young or did this gift of cooking just came naturally while growing up? Your food prep are easy to follow, ingredients are "easy" ( there are some ingredients that are either difficult to get in some countries or i probably have never heard the name of such ingredients before ) to get and affordable and lastly your food prep are healthy. I love cooking and baking. I love the way you always add a little bit of carb (rice) to all your delicious food prep ( i can understand that there are people who have to cut out carbs completely from their diet for health reasons ) , because that's exactly how I prep and eat my food. A little bit carb on one portion of the plate.
Jack, in season 3 of Rick and Morty, Rick sweared to find The Sauce, even if it took 9 more seasons. I believe THIS is the sauce he was referring to. THIS. WAS. MINDBLOWINGLY AMAZING.
Love the look and sound of these. I'm a bit disabled so l always cook extra and freeze for days when my pain levels are too high to cook and it's great to gave some new recipes to try. Please could you include times and temps in the written recipe so we dont have to try and take notes. My tip for the meatballs is, divide them but only shape them roughly until they're all portioned out. That way you can add a bit, remove a bit, as needed to even the sizes out without having wasted time shaping them twice.😊 Also, l'd definitely cook the meatballs in the oven while the rice was cooking. Much more productive use of the oven that's already on and, less standing while cooking - something that's vital for me.
Whilst I love the rice based dishes, I find it really hard to find good pasta dishes that aren't full of cream/really high in fat, the 2 in the series so far have been great, would love to see more like them in the future!
My mind is blown!!! I had *no* idea that rice can be cooked in the oven (of course my son, the culinary school student, says he knew😒). I 💜 both rice and meatballs, so I am definitely going to try this out. 👍🏾
Just tried it today. Absolutely great meal. Love it, especially cuz its spicy but you still taste the meat. Will try your other meals aswell. Thanks TH-cam algorithm for suggesting me this channel. And thank you :)
Thank you so much for this recipe. I don’t like beef so much. The only way that I like beef is on Burgers or meatballs. The recipes look delicious and healthy. Thank you for sharing. Also, I like that your videos are very professional. I am Latina , English is my second language and I understand everything you said. Thanks 😘🙋🏻♀️🙏🏻. And God bless you.

Hi Jack, this is another meal prep recipe that I'm very interested in making. 1. It is rich in protein but not so high in calories and fats. 2. It is Asian style. I truly enjoy your videos.
I tried this last night and it was superb. I had to make a few substitute but it was my first successful attempt at meatballs that actually stay together (not falling apart when frying). Can I use normal breadcrumbs iso panko? I would make it many times again, but next time will go a little smaller with the meatballs 👍
Love the meal preps I’ve been following these and they have made my meal preps so much more enjoyable The nutrition label on my rice says it has 160 calories for 45gs 300gs is such a massive amount it well surpasses 5 portions even going over the 45g serving on the bag I’ve found rice to be so calorie dense I use maybe 50% of what you use in the vids How do you come to your nutritional values when you measure portions
Your recipes are very nice! I would never be able to eat this little per portion though, I wonder how people can eat and feel full after 1 portion only!
@@ChefJackOvens thank you for the answer!! And yes absolutely enjoying the series, always clear explanation, great video quality and pleasant voice, good meal selection 🔥
Ha, swap out the sriracha for some gochujang paste and you have a sauce I like to use for chicken, good to know I had the right idea. Will certainly give this one a go.
Have you ever had any problems with reheating rice after a few days. I've heard many conflicting things about proper storage/cooling down of rice and how if you are not careful can cause some issues.
Well, I tried this one today. The meatballs were excelllent. However following the sauce recipe exactly I produced something that nearly blew my head off and I like chili. I know you have suggested an alternative sauce for those who don’t like spicy food but I am not one of those people. I can only assume that where you live a milder sriracha is readily available. Otherwise thank you for producing so many good recipes.
Really nice recipes you're putting up here, I'm definitely going to try a couple over the coming weeks :) One question, you're using quite a bit of oil in your cooking.... Is this accounted for in the macros?
Hi man, i'm fan of yours and your cooking. I have tried 3 recipies so far and i'm looking forward to do more. Saddly im not a fan of broccolini, can you suggest some other vegetable options that go well with this recipies? (I was thinking maybe tomatoes, peppers and onions, how they sounds to you?) PS: Sorry if I wrote something wrong, i'm not very good with english. ^^
Cheers Chef! I always need to make some adjustments to recipes to accomodate my fructose sensitivity (FODMAP diet) and unfortunately honey is out! I usually go with maple syrup or brown/white sugar as a honey substitute, which do you think would work best in this sauce?
Ey, could I use that sauce without having to cook It? It looks delicious and I wanted to use It for more recepies that the meatballs, just wondering If I had to cook It or just mix It and ready to go.
hi, love your videos, looks so good,, haven't tried any yet but will. can't you make a mega healthy series? for those who want protein and want good food to lose weight
@@ChefJackOvens I’ve run into some health issues and have to eat very healthy foods now so I would love that as well! Just discovered your channel and omigoodness the way you teach and present is simply amazing! I love the simple meals too because I am a student and don’t have too much spare time
I read an article saying that rice becomes poisonous quite easily while prepping and you should only eat freshly cooked or no longer than 1 day old rice. What are your thoughts on that? Have you ever had any digestive problems afer eating a 5 day old rice?
Never in my life have I had a problem with rice nor have I ever got food poisoning from anything. If you know you’re not going to eat it with 2-3 days freeze it or cook fresh rice if you have any concern

So many innuendos, no sure if on purpose or not but still made me chuckle 🤭🤭
Just made this for dinner tonight/meal prep this week. So delicious and easy. Thank you again!
You are welcome!
I love the slow-mo zoom of the spill of the broccolini, absolutely hilarious!

is 20 minutes enough for the rice to cook at 375f?

OMG, gonna try this one this week (saving the video)🤣. Looks delicious. thanks for sharing again❤
“Did you really meal prep if you didn’t take a picture of it?” Lmao when I first started meal prepping was so proud of myself I had to. 😂
Looking forward to trying recipe. You never let us down.
Thank you 🙏 please enjoy

Avoid American pasta recipes, most Italian pasta dishes don't use cream
@@Patrick_Bateman92 Yeah and they are bland as hell
The innuendos continue. Good work.
Been cooking your recepies for a few weeks now. Thx for the videos
I usually wash my rice 3 times before I cook it. Chef Jack makes everything so easy. I am learning so much from you. Thank you
"Did you really meal prep if you didn't take a photo?"
I'm feeling personally attacked
My mind is blown!!! I had *no* idea that rice can be cooked in the oven (of course my son, the culinary school student, says he knew😒). I 💜 both rice and meatballs, so I am definitely going to try this out. 👍🏾
I added a golden curry cube to the sauce and cooked the broccoli with Chinese cooking wine. Amazing!
I just made this for my work week, it smells so delicious. The sesame oil on the broccolini smells absolutely divine!
2 more boxes of Sweet and Sour chicken left then will have to make this one! Got those vacuum boxes as well - they’re great!
Your meatballs look delicious. I like the rice cooking method, Jack. I'll try that the next time I cook rice.😃
Just cooked this meal for dinner with my husband and added kimchi to the side. 100/10 👍🏻🔥

Any suggestions on gluten free options instead of Panko breadcrumbs? Thanks
Gluten free breadcrumbs. They can also be left out but the meatballs will be a lot more fragile 🙏
any gluten free bread? soak it in some milk so its more pliable... oats work too, just throw them in a blender beforehand. rice works too
need to try this! love the outro
Life saver!
