    If you like chinese peanut chicken.....this recipe is on the back of the envelope of a taste of thai peanut sauce mix

    2-3 lbs boneless skinless chicken, I like to use chicken tenderloins
    A taste of Thai peanut sauce mix
    a can coconut milk, I use the light variety

    Oven to 350 degress; mix peanut sauce mix and coconut milk. Dredge chicken (both sides) in the mixture, I put the remaining sauce in with the chicken to bake. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes or until done, spoon extra sauce over rice or noodles. To make it really low cal, use shiratki noodles. It is great to satisfy the chinese craving for walnut or peanut chicken.

    Happy eating!!!

    Thank you!!!
    I'm hosting a dinner party tomorrow, the special guest requested peanut chicken and I've been looking everywhere for a simple recipe :happy:

    I got this idea from the local Mexican restaurant:
    grilled chicken breasts seasoned with black pepper and a tiny bit of salt served with broccoli, cauliflower, and mushrooms all topped with a small amount of melted queso cheese....and sometimes I serve it with a little side of rice.

    1. Slice chicken breast in half width wise.

    2. Coat in something.

    3. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 min or 350 for 30 depending on oven


    "Something" translates to either...

    A. Balsamic vinegar and mixed Italian herbs
    B. Misted olive oil, garlic powder and herbs
    C. Italian bread crumbs, no egg wash/milk necessary
    D. Italian bread crumbs, topped with finely grated fresh parmesan sliced almonds
    E. Italian bread crumbs, tomato sauce, and mozzarella added during the last 10 minutes of cook time

    Grilled (Foreman, grill pan, what-have-you) boneless skinless chicken breast (prepared) topped with low sodium smoked ham and mozzarella cheese, put under broiler for 3 minutes just to melt. I generally service this with sauteed asparagus or a simply romaine salad.You can also add a slice of fresh pineapple under the cheese before broiling. YUM!

    Curry Chicken

    Cook 4 chicken breasts and shred it. Add Curry powder to taste (I like it spicy and I add about 4T), 1C whole cashews, 1/2C dried cranberries, chopped celery and light Mayo, not so it's saturated but enough to make it not too dry. Sorry, I cook but don't measure the mayo because I hate it and I like to pretend it's not in there.lol. It's SUPER delicious and I eat it either with a flatbread or wrapped in lettuce.
