Here are a few ways:

- Slice it thin, hammer it out and pan sear / grill / bake it with a little sea salt and pepper and do a mushroom duxelle with tarragon over it and a mustard sauce (chicken stock / mustard/ honey if desired)

- Grill it with some garlic, and add a splash of fresh lemon juice.

- Saute it up with a tbsp of organic peanut butter, some chilies, and some chicken stock with a splash of lime for some chicken satay.

- Bake it in the over and coat it with sriracha sauce (HOLY CRAP GOOD)

- Grilled Chicken Fajitas (Grill the onions, peppers, and chicken all at the same time)

- Decomposed Chicken Pot Pie: Take chicken breast and braise it in chicken stock, add in sugar snap peas, baby carrots, and sweet potatoes and cook until tender. In a bowl mix xanthan gum or arrow root flour with almond, grass fed milk, or coconut milk and make a roux. Mix that into the chicken stock after it has cooked the chicken and simmer until cooked. Take a gluten free biscuit, cut it in half and pour the chicken and vegetable sauce over it. Top with Sea Salt / Pepper to Taste

- Sauteed Thinly Sliced chicken breast with Kale, Garlic, and Pineapple or Mango. Simmer with a little bit of water or white wine. Top with a small pinch of nutmeg and sea salt.

Message me if you ever need anything. I add people in case they want advice.

Chicken Jambalaya

1.5- 2 lb cut up chicken breasts
1 pkg. turkey smoked sausage
1 14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 green pepper cut up
1 onion cut up
1cup water
1T .garlic powder
1T. onion powder
1T. cajun seasoning
1t. black pepper
1t. cayenne pepper
1T. salt
(all seasonings are to taste, this is just the basic)

throw it all in the crockpot 7hrs on low, on the last hour throw in 1c. uncooked rice

or you can put just 1 lb. chicken breasts, and at the last 30 minutes of cooking throw in 1lb. raw shrimp

yesterday I marinaded some chicken breasts in Italian dressing and garlic powder and grilled them on the Foreman. It wasn't bad but I didn't let the chicken sit in the marinade for long enough because I was hungry and was probably going to start eating some junk instead of dinner.

the easiest simplest thing i do with chicken breast is season them with salt & pepper, chop and add garlic, onions, any herbs of your choice, coat in olive oil. just enough olive oil to lightly coat the chicken, and then i bake it in a baking pan. the chicken comes out flavorful and juicy. it takes no time to bake and it freezes well. as far as making it a full meal, i might add a serving of pasta with this chicken w/ some tomato sauce. also, i might eat this chicken with rice and a veg or potatoes and a veg. its my go to-easy thing to do with chicken breast.

I like to pound them flat, brown them un a skillet and put them in the crockpot topped with peach mango salsa or corn and black bean salsa and cook on low in the crockpot for about 6 hrs. Sometimes in the last hour, I will dump rice on top. Other times, no rice but will shred and put on a tortilla with cheddar and small amount of FF sour cream.

Thanks everyone for the great suggestions! It's nice to get some new ideas to get out of a rut.

I love to slice them in half lengthwise and add some montreal steak seasoning to them and pan sear them, delicious

I sprinkle dry ranch seasoning and light olive oil then bake until done.
