    I know this is a little early, but here is my recipe for next week....

    Honey Chicken Stir-Fry.... I LOVED it over some rice.

    1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces
    1 garlic clove, minced
    3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
    3 tablespoons honey
    2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper
    1 package (16 oz) frozen broccoli stir-fry vegies
    2 teaspoons cornstarch
    1 tablespoon cold water

    In large nonstick skillet, stir fry chicken and garlic in 2 teaspoons oil. Add honey, soy sauce, salt and pepper. Cook and stir until chicken is lightly browned and juices run clear. Remove and keep warm.

    In same pan, stir-fry vegies in remaining oil for 4-5 minutes or until tender. Return chicken to the pan, stir to coat. Combine cornstarch and cold water until smooth, gradually stir into chicken mixture. Bring to a boil, cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened. Serve with rice.

    Makes 4 servings
    1 cup stir-fry mixture (without rice) equals:
    243 calories
    5 g fat
    66 mg cholesterol
    470 mg sodium
    19 g carbs
    3 g fiber
    28 g protein

    Enjoy!

    Sounds delish!

    Here is my receipe, I'm making it tonight for the first time, but so far from what I've sampled it taste GREAT! I'm not serving it with salad or dressing, instead having Garlic Butter Red Potatoes and Green Beans with it (from Paula Dean)

    http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/03/coconut-chicken-salad-with-warm-honey.html

    Warm oven-fried coconut chicken over a bed of baby greens, cucumber, tomato, shredded carrots topped with a hot honey mustard vinaigrette. It's the perfect mix of salty and sweet, warm and cold.

    I'm not sure what it is about spring, maybe the thought of having to get into a bathing suit in just a few more months, or maybe it's just the sunshine that switches my brain to want less soups and stews to large main dish salads. This salad has plenty of protein to keep you satisfied and the warmth of the chicken doesn't leave me feel like I'm missing something. Serve this for lunch or dinner; use any combination of salad fixins' and dig in!

    For the chicken I found the cornflake crumbs gave this a nice crispy texture, but unseasoned breadcrumbs would work just as well in their place. This would also be great with shrimp, enjoy!!




    Coconut Chicken Salad with Warm Honey Mustard Vinaigrette

    Servings: 3 • Serving Size: salad with 2 chicken tenders • Points: 8 pts • Points+: 8 pts
    Calories: 397.6 • Fat: 11.0 g • Protein: 26.8 g • Carb: 32.5 g • Fiber: 4.4 g • Sugar: 10

    6 (about 12 oz) chicken tenderloins
    6 tbsp shredded coconut
    1/4 cup panko crumbs
    2 tbsp crushed cornflake crumbs
    1/3 cup egg substitute or egg whites
    pinch salt
    olive oil spray
    6 cups mixed baby greens
    3/4 cup shredded carrots
    1 large tomato, sliced
    1 small cucumber, sliced

    Vinaigrette
    1 tbsp oil
    1 tbsp honey
    1 tbsp white vinegar (balsamic would work too)
    2 tsp dijon mustard

    Whisk all vinaigrette ingredients; set aside.

    Preheat oven to 375°.

    Combine coconut flakes, panko, cornflake crumbs and salt in a bowl. Put egg whites or egg beaters in another bowl.

    Lightly season chicken with salt. Dip the chicken in the egg, then in the coconut crumb mixture. Place chicken on a cookie sheet lined with parchment for easy cleanup. Lightly spray with olive oil spray and bake for 30 minutes turning halfway, or until chicken is cooked through.

    Place 2 cups baby greens on each plate. Divide carrots, cucumber, tomato evenly between each plate. When chicken is ready slice on the diagonal and place on top of greens. Heat dressing in the microwave a few seconds and divide equally between each salad; a little over 1 tbsp each.

    Wow, I need to stop looking at these fantastic recipes, I haven't eaten lunch and this is making me HUNGRY! :smile:

    I am also going on vaca this month from 8/20-8/27...I don't think I will have computer access, but will still be working out, etc...

    Keep in mind that even though your on vacation, the challenges should be done... unfortunately, if 1 person don't do them we lose out.. Even if you have to shoot me an email sunday night saying, I completed them all (not my preferred method but if you don't have access you don't have access) ... Also make sure to send me your weight BEFORE you go on vaca.
