Ideas for b/s chicken breasts for dinner?

LittleNicci

I'm allergic to EVERYTHING (my allergy specialist told me I should live in a bubble) so I pretty much only eat chicken as far as meat goes. I've learned to make it a million different ways. Recently I bought a book called "The New Dieter's Cookbook" everything in it is low cal! Use 1 cup of apple juice, add whatever spices you like (I ususally use garlic powder, onion powder, brown sugar and a tiny bit of cayenne for kick) bring it just to boil in large skillet, place cut up chicken breasts in juice mixture until almost done, cut and core 1 large apple (I usually use Jazz or Pink Lady) add slices to mix for 2-4 more minutes, use slotted spoon to get chicken and apples onto plates, add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to juice and stir until thick and bubbly, pour over chicken and apples. NUMMY! If you (or anyone else for that matter) ever need a new idea for chicken send me a message, I've got a TON of great ideas!

I like this one.


1 Shallot, minced
1 Clove of Garlic, minced
1 Red Chili Minced
1 Small Can of Roasted Mild Green Chilies, minced
Hot Sauce, to taste
1 Oz Queso Fresco (Mexican, super-low cal cheese)
2 6-8 Oz B/S Chicken Breasts

Sweat first 4 ingredients in non-stick pan with 1/2 TBS of olive oil for ~5 minutes until soft. Put in bowl. Shred Queso Freso, and add to the bowl with hot sauce, salt and pepper, little cumin if you like. Mix well, and let cool. Using a sharp perring knife, make a pocket in the chicken breasts, being careful not to piece all the way through. Divide chili/cheese mixture between the two breasts, and stuff pockets. Let rest in fridge for ~15 minutes. Then, in the same non-stick pan (why dirty another dish) sear on high heat for 3 minutes a side, then pop in a 350 degree oven for ~20 minutes.

last night i made a great paleo dish with b/s chicken breasts!

4tbsp coconut oil
2 shallots cut into thick rings
4 4-6oz chicken breasts
fresh ground pepper to taste
sea salt (optional... i didn't use it)

put coconut oil into a large skillet and once it's all liquified, throw in shallots and cook for one minute.

season chicken breasts with pepper (and salt if you choose) and add to skillet. cook 7-8 minutes on each side until cooked entirely through. Enjoy!

It's more of a lunch recipe, but I like t slice it up into strips, toss with cajun seasoning and saute in a non-stick skillet. When cooked, I mix in some wing sauce. I put the pieces in a low carb wrap with shredded lettuce and thinly sliced onion. A tablespoon of light bleu cheese tops it off. Wrap it up and you have a great meal.

If I'm feeling really lazy, I just give them a solid dusting of garlic salt & black pepper and pop 'em in the oven.

One of my favorites, if I have a little more time is this one-

My go-to chicken breast recipe is chicken piccata. Bake the breasts (usually I just brush them with a little olive oil and fresh garlic), put them aside covered. Then make the sauce, which consists of 1 tbsp olive oil, sauteed garlic, 1/4 cup dry white wine, capers, and lemon juice. Spoon over the chicken and voila! Healthy, easy, and so delicious!!! I serve it with roasted asparagus and throw a little of the sauce from the chicken on top.

Cook the chicken.
Prepare about 1c (dry) white rice.

Cut the cooked chicken into small pieces and throw it in a frying pan.
Add taco seasoning.
Add black beans 1/2 to 1c or so.
Add the rice.

Congrats, you just made Sidesteal's Ballin *kitten* Chicken Taco Dish™

Serve on tortillas or if you don't want to spend the calories on tortillas, just eat in a bowl.

Don't forget hot sauce.

Bake. Put bbq sauce on them, then Mexican cheese, bacon pieces,green onions, and chopped tomatoes.

Butterfly breasts for skillet or leave as is for baked

I use lemon zest, garlic, red/green bell peppers, onions, shallots, parsley all fresh. Saute that up and throw it over the chicken on a bed of quinoa yum yum

You can also mince a habanero and mix with some cranberry sauce and use it as a spread on the chicken.

I love my balsamic chicken recipe from the Jenny Craig website.

It's amazing. My husband is not a chicken fan and he likes it too.

I love good balsamic on ANYTHING! It's fabulous if you take some sliced strawberries mashed with a bit of sugar, and marinate them in a little balsamic, and then put it over vanilla ice cream. Seriously! Try it! You'll be amazed!
