Actually, Google "costa vida chicken recipe". Make it in a crock pot with zesty italian dressing. Great stuff alone, in a salad or in a wrap.

with four kids, disabled honey and working full time, we marinade over night in our favorite dressing(ranch, italian, cesear, honey mustard, etc.) and then to the crock pot for the day, then its ready when i get home! add some steamed veggies(usually use micro steamers) and maybe a salad using the like dressing. yummy and easy!0

Cube and marinade with EVOO, white wine, fresh rosemary and minced garlic for a few hours. Skewer and grill over a high temp and then serve with spaghetti squash and your favorite marinara recipe.
A green salad with a vinaigrette as a side is a great addition.0 -
This recipe from Epicurious is delicious, easy, quick & healthy. I use boneless/skinless chicken breasts usually, so the goat cheese mixture is simply spread on top and you cook them just as the recipe calls for. Also, my local grocery only has chevre in stock ordinarily and it works well. The calorie/carbs/fat/protein breakdown per 8 oz serving is: 269/5/14/33. Enjoy!
Chicken Breasts with Goat Cheese and Rosemary Bon Appétit | December 1995
by Dave Tyson: Kingston, Washington
Yield: Serves 2
2 teaspoons butter
2 tablespoons chopped shallots
3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried
3 ounces soft fresh goat cheese (such as Montrachet)
1/2 teaspoon crushed black peppercorns
2 large chicken breast halves with skin and bones
Melt 1 teaspoon butter in heavy small skillet over medium-low heat. Add shallots and rosemary and sauté until shallots are tender, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in goat cheese and pepper. Season to taste with salt. Using fingertips, loosen skin of chicken breasts, leaving skin attached on 1 long side. Spread half of cheese filling over meat and under skin of each breast. Pull skin over filling and secure with toothpick. Rub remaining 1 teaspoon butter over skin, dividing equally. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
Preheat oven to 425°F. Arrange chicken on baking sheet. Bake until cooked through, about 25 minutes.

I was trying to find an equivalent to buffalo chicken dip, and here's what I did:
boneless, skinless chicken breast, grilled and apart
Calorie-free butter spray
Ranch dressing dry mix
Pampered Chef (g/f is a dealer) buffalo rub (though there's plenty of others that would do)
shake the chicken bits in a plastic container to coat with the powders, and serve however you want. The calorie count is largely dependent upon your chip/wrap(my favorite)/rice delivery system, but as it stands above the calorie and protein "costs" are amazing.0 -

Chicken Breast + Rotisserie Chicken seasoning + George Foreman = AWESOME
I usually serve it with steamed broccoli.
Or you could have it with a small amount of baked beans and a small potatoe.0 -

Here is a recipe I got from Pampered Chef that my husband and I love!
Sweet & Spicy Glazed Chicken
1/3 cup apricot jam
1 Tbsp lime juice
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped {I sometimes use crushed red pepper flakes instead}
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp salt {in the recipe, but I don't add it}
4 boneles, skinless chicken breasts halves (4-6 oz each)
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 Tbsp snipped fresh cilantro
Put the jam in a microwave safe bowl and heat on high for 30-40 seconds or until melted; add lime juice and jalapeno. Whisk until blended and set the glaze aside.
Combine the chili powder and salt. Flatten chicken to even thickness then rub garlic over the chicken and sprinkle evenly with chili powder mixture.
Heat a 12 in skillet over medium-high heat until hot, lightly spraying the skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Cook chicken for 5-7 minutes; turn and cook an additional 5-7 minutes or until no longer pink in center, brushing with the glaze as you cook. Sprinkle with cilantro when finished.

Been eating chicken every day for 6 years it feels like.
1.) Salad with chicken strips usa salsa & hot sauce (both low fat & low calorie!) as dressing with a TINY amount of ranch if needed. Can add tortilla strips, corn etc.
2.) Chicken burritos, wraps, etc.
3.) Chicken and corn with salsa over brown rice
4.) chicken and broccoli stir fry
5.) BBQ Chicken
6.) Chicken "pot pie" (make the filling with healthy substitutes & extra veggies eat over a piece of toast or whole what pita instead of the pie crust0 -

I didn't use the mayo because I didn't see the point, and I used a broccoli, cauliflower, carrot mix because that is what I had available.0 -
