    That curry chicken sounds great. I love Chicken chili, quick and simple. Great with some green chili peppers added. Yum

    Pollo in Potacchio
    Inspired by Chef Trabocchi
    Skinnytaste.com
    Servings: 5 - 10 • Serving Size: 1 thigh with sauce • Old Points: 3 pts • Points+: 3 pts
    Calories: 123 • Fat: 4.6 g • Protein: 14.3 g • Carb: 4.1 g • Fiber: 0.7 g • Sugar: 0.5 g
    Sodium: 186.4

    Ingredients:
    • 10 skinless chicken thighs (with bone)
    • kosher salt and fresh black pepper
    • 3 - 4 small sprigs fresh rosemary
    • 1 tbsp + 1 tsp olive oil
    • 1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
    • 4 garlic cloves, chopped
    • 1 celery stalk, chopped
    • 1 carrot, chopped
    • pinch red pepper flakes (optional)
    • 2 cups Imported crushed tomatoes (Tuttoroso)
    • 1/4 tsp dried marjoram
    • 1/4 cup dry white wine (Pinot Grigio)
    • 2 cups low sodium, fat free chicken broth
    • kosher salt and fresh black pepper

    Directions:

    Lightly season the chicken with salt and fresh pepper. Place a Dutch Oven or large heavy pot on medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp oil, when hot add the chicken and sear until browned on all sides, about 6-7 minutes on each side. Transfer chicken to a dish and set aside.

    Sauté garlic and onions (and red pepper flakes if using) in remaining oil; sauté until golden, about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add celery and carrots and saute on medium-low for about 2-3 minutes, until soft. Add the wine and chicken broth, scraping any caramelized bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon.

    Add tomatoes, marjoram, reduce heat to low, adjust salt and pepper to taste and simmer for 30 minutes.

    Add the chicken and rosemary to the sauce, partially cover and cook slowly on low heat for another 25 - 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, adding water if needed.

    For the Crock pot:

    Start with the same directions as the first two paragraphs up to adding the wine and half of the chicken broth listed. Add the remaining ingredients to the crock pot and cook on low for 8 hours taking the lid off the last 30 minutes


    yummm...

    Here are a few I love. All of them are in the neighborhood of 500 calories. A hint to cut calories . . I started using a spray olive oil. I cut my oil use to about 1/3. Saves me like 80 calories/meal!

    The cajun seasoning is use is called “Weber Grill Creations: N’Orleans Cajun Seasoning”. It’s at Walmart or Tom Thumb or any of the major groceries store. It’s awesome on everything.

    I do half BBQ and half steak sauce with this. Really good. Very simple.

    This is awesome. Really low cal. Add whatever veggies you have on hand. In addition to the recipe, I usually add carrot, tomato, corn, shelled edamame or whatever. I usually skip the ginger, just because I don’t usually have any.

    Quick and simple for a chili recipe. Great as leftovers.

    The sauce is really good. I usually make this with green beans and pour some of the sauce over the green beans.
