What do you guys make with chicken breast?

Chicken breast: Thaw it, chop it, cook it, eat it. The thawing is to make the chopping possible.. The chopping is to hasten the cooking and ease the eating. The cooking is to make safe the eating. The eating is the whole point of it.

Whatever you are making, it would probably taste better if you used boneless skinless chicken thighs. Chicken breast are just so bland and dry.

I use Guy's BBQ sauce. It's 10 cals for 2tbsp and it's amazing. With a toasted English muffin and 2 laughing cow cheese wedges this meal is slightly less than 400 cals.

I'm looking for healthy lunch recipes with chicken breast. How do you guys meal prep with it? Something under 400 calories.

I usually add pieces of chicken to soup or to rice & beans.

For the carved pieces with skin, I'll put a piece into containers on top of roasted vegetables (I don't recommend this with skinless chicken breast though- it will be too dry on re-heating).

For the boneless, skinless chicken breast, I've also boiled/steamed it before and done chicken salad.

if youve eaten as much chicken as me you get so tired of it, so I use a light coating of shake and bake, theres a bunch of flavors and it helps tremendously and doesnt change much on my macros

I throw some chicken breasts in the iron skillet along with a tablespoon of olive oil. Cook on both sides until done, remove breasts from skillet. Add 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar to the skillet to deglaze it, add about 3 minced garlic cloves and cook until it smells good- maybe a minute. Add a pint of grape tomatoes that I've halved and cook until the tomatoes are tender. Add a tablespoon or so of basil. Put the breasts back in, top each with a slice of mozzarella cheese. Cover the whole thing until the cheese is melted. Yummy!!!

I love fried chicken in coconut oil & minced garlic to put on white rice with salsa and melted cheeses. But this past week, I have cut out dairy, sugars, processed foods, junk food...

Baked basil, lemon, garlic chicken breast with Black Hinode rice and Jasmine brown rice combined(1/2 cup each). Add a bit of fat free feta(1/4 cup) to top the chicken and reduced sodium soy sauce to the rice. Bam!

Braised chicken breast with leeks is good. It can be made in a slow cooker and the vegetables help keep the chicken moist. Another good slow cooker dish is chicken breast with artichoke hearts and mushrooms.

2. Ground all white meat chicken sautéed veggies, spices, tomato purée and cauliflower rice. Sautéed it all together. I also change out the ground chicken for extra lean ground beef.

Alfredo sauce with fettuccine noodles.

Breaded and cooked in the Actifry. I'll bread and "fry" potato wedges at the same time. Spiced with paprika.

I made this ginger garlic sauce and it was awesome. I used cider vinegar instead of rice vinegar to no harm. It would be just as awesome over chicken.

If you get tired of rice, pasta, and potatoes there is always wraps, yams and quinoa.

I like to shred my chicken breast and add sweet baby Ray's buffalo sauce. Cook it in the Crock-Pot. I serve it over brown rice. Shredded chicken with seasoning (chili powder,cumin etc.) and peppers (green, red, jalapeno etc.) for tacos. Put on a corn tortilla with some salsa is also good!
