I make a Shepard's pie with chicken or turkey, tons of veggies and mashed cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes. Otherwise I usually bake or grill my chicken and serve it with a starch (usually either potatoes or rice) and veggies.

Feta stuffed chicken with spinach. The whole meal is only 231 calories (if you add nuts to the spinach).

Grab some egg whites, some chicken and a box of Wheaties. Crush up the Wheaties in a bag and dip the chicken in the eggs and put in the bag. Shake it up and bake at 400 for about 20-25 minutes. Goes well with Dijon mustard.

My SIL takes a piece of bacon (use turkey) and wraps it around a chicken breast. On the top of the chicken breast she puts a dab of cream cheese and sour cream (you can use the lower calorie versions) mixed with diced onions and bakes for 30-35 minutes....delicious!

My healthy lifestyle includes some red meats. I would probably pick fish over chicken .....The fat profile for fish is mucl better than chicken if it's health your focusing on, and many red meats would also be considered a better profile than chicken. As far as chicken is concerned I like to flatten the breasts out, marinate in olive oil, lime, garlic, herbs, salt and pepper and grill quickly over a high grill........tasty.

i do this but put a piece of string cheese under the bacon and cook.

also, throw chicken, salsa, corn, and black beans (if desired) into a crock pot. cook on low all day, or high for a couple hours. use for tacos, enchiladas, or my fav spooned over rice.

I like to roast a whole chicken, like the one I posted above and then use the meat for the next couple of days in other recipes like these:
