    I made sweet and sour chicken drumsticks last night and it was awesome! I cook the drumsticks in the pan for about 5mins either side then put them in a heatproof dish with some frozen vegetables and a sweet and sour sauce from a jar (surprisingly low calories, but I'm sure there's heaps of even healthier recipes for it online) then I cook that in the oven for 40-50mins. It's super filling even without rice or any type of carbs! Quick and easy too!

    You might want to check the sweet and sour sauce, it tends to have a lot of sugar.

    and/or sodium added (among other things)
    Make your own sauce, simple and you know what is in it.

    I like hasselback chicken.

    You can switch the fillings - I just find it faster than stuffing the chicken breast traditionally, and the breast stays very tender.

    Try - jalapeno, crumbled bacon, cream cheese & cheddar (like a jalapeno popper)
    broccoli, cream cheese or ricotta, cheddar
    prosciutto, diced asparagus, provolone
