    I usually always bake my chicken breast with some lemon pepper seasoning or cajun seasoning. it comes out juicy and really tasty. I also like to cook it in a pan with a little lemon juice and garlic powder. Again, it comes out juicy! I also make feta chicken burgers, they are soo good.

    1 lb ground chicken
    1 Tbsp fresh oregano (i use about a teaspoon of dried)
    1/4 tsp garlic powder
    7 tbsp feta cheese
    fry them up in a pan, or they'd be more delicious on the grill!

    hope this helps!:flowerforyou:

    A kid friendly recipe my kids love is spaghetti bake! Cook noodles and add in cooked chicken pieces mix in sauce and a little bit of velveta cheese and bake in oven until heated and cheese is melted.

    You can check recipes on skinnytaste.com, but an easy one is to cut them in small pieces, roll them in egg whites, then in panko crumbs, then bake for 30 minutes.

    I bake my 4oz chicken breast with 2T Italian dressing (I use Ken's Northern Italian) drizzled on it and sometimes sprinkle a bit of light parmesan cheese on it if you can spare the calories. With or without is good. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes or until not longer pink inside.

    ETA - my kids love it (8yo - 10yo - 16yo - 20yo)

    i cover my chicken in egg whites (used to use butter..and i wonder why i'm fat) and bread them in mashed potato flakes mixed with a little parm cheese and salt/pepper. bake at 400 for about 20 minutes, should comes out flaky on outside moist on inside. so yummy and makes me feel like i'm having a side of mashed potatoes because of the coating.

    I like to Grill mine and then put it in a wrap (Banderita low carb/low fat wheat wrap is my favorite) with some lettuce, tomato & onion and a nice drizzle of Frank's wing sauce (which is very low in calories).

    Top that off with 3 beers and a basket of fries with extra salt! (yes, I'm kidding)

    Marinate in yogurt for at least an hour, up to a day if you have time! It will be so moist and tender, promise!

    My current favorite way to handle chicken breast is to brown it with a little coconut oil spray in a cast-iron skillet, then deglaze with a little cooking sherry and simmer until the sherry has cooked off. To. Die. For.

    Hummus Crusted Chicken!! Take your favorite hummus (I used garlic lovers) smear a thick layer on top of a chicken breast sprinkle with a little lemon juice and paprika, and bake in the oven over slices of squash/veggies and potatoes (in a grease glass dish). It is so so juicy and delicious! The hummus kind of crusts on the top, and has the texture of breadcrumbs almost... Your kids won't even notice the difference!

    I use a princess house cooker and some grapeseed oil to cook it in the microwave...it goes from raw (about a 6 oz breast) to done in about 5 minutes...before cooking I put the grapeseed oil on and then sprinkle the seasoning of my choice! It's great!

    Same basic idea, but we substituted greek yogurt for the egg white and crushed up pretzels for the panko crumbs. Our 5-year old twins loved two of their favorites being combined.

    Low carb version is parmesan cheese and ground up pork rinds with spices.

    Broil the chicken breast with some fajita seasoning sprinkled on. When cooked through, add taco cheese or pepper jack cheese on top of the breast meat. Return to oven until the cheese melts. Crumble up some tortilla chips and top with Salsa. My boys LOVE this!

    Uhm, chicken breast. That is my favorite meal. I could live whole my life just on chicken breast, tuna, eggs and cottage cheese.
