need ideas for chicken

Don't know just what kind of diet you are working on here..However I have a few things I do with chicken
he may like.

If you aren't cutting out breading on foods his one you can try.

Tater dipped oven baked fried chicken.

Instant potato flakes
egg wash or water
your choice of seasonings
non stick spray.

depending on the amount of chicken you are making.
for two servings

no more than 1 cup of instant potato flakes and your
seasoning choices mixed into a shallow bowl or small
casserole/pie dish. Roll chicken in egg wash or water
Roll chicken in tater flakes to coat
place on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with non
stick spray. spray chicken lightly with cooking spray.
bake in over at 350-275 until chicken is white and potatoes
are golden brown. No fat used in this recipe so it's pretty low in
fat. Of course I like using boneless thighs because the meat stays
moist and tender but the breasts will turn out great too.

Slice it thinly, coat with flour and sautee with onions, garlic and mushrooms (if you like them) then deglaze the pan with a bit of lemon juice, add a bit of broth (just to cover the chicken) let simmer for about 20 mins. and serve over whatever you like (rice, pasta or starchy veg? for suggestions.)
Even my twelve year old and two year old love this.


EDIT: You could also coat it lightly in some low cal. mayo, then coat with italian breadcrumbs. Put in a 350 deg. oven for around 40-50 mins. and you get THE most moist perfectly cooked chicken breasts ever. (I love this recipe. Use baggies for the coatings to make it easier to clean up!)

This is my favorite because it's so easy to make a ton all at once and then reheat the leftovers at work the next couple days.

Set oven to 350. Put chicken breasts on foil-covered baking sheet and spray both sides with olive oil. Sprinkle any spices you like on top of the chicken (we use rosemary, basil, and thyme).

Cook at 350 for 15 minutes per side or until cooked to proper temperature. (Ovens vary.)

Meanwhile, make a pot of brown rice. I use Uncle Ben's. It takes about 10 minutes altogether when using the stove top.

In another pot, empty a bag of frozen mixed vegetables, whatever kind you like. We use peas and carrots.

When the rice is finished, dump the mixed veggies into the rice and stir together. It will end up a lot like fried rice, only without all of the fat/salt. You could even add a bit of scrambled egg if you want some more protein.

My BF likes to eat the chicken separate from the rice, but I like to dice the chicken and mix it into the rice.

This makes a very filling dinner, thanks to all of the protein and fiber. It's also fairly cheap.

This sounds really good....i just might have to try this myself. I have a house full of picky eaters, but i think this just might work

Chicken breast, quinoa, spinach and grilled courgette/pepper/cherry tomatoes. Add some herbs/spices to season. Very simple but filling and so healthy!

Have you checked out skinnytaste.com? She has some amazing chicken recipes.

My favourite are the stuffed chicken recipes, like her Chicken Rollatini with Spinach alla Parmigiana:

Some are more time consuming than others, but definitely take a look.

When yo u Google "boneless, skinless chicken breast recipes" there are 1,200,000 hits. Must be something that you might like.

Tater dipped chicken tastes like fried chicken. I got that from a cook book I bought years ago. My family eats it up.

Another good one is this.

Cheese nip chicken

boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs
cheese nips (crushed or proces into a cheese bread crumb type breading)
You can use reduced fat ones as well.
Sour cream(you can use fat free as well)
non stick buttery spray

put cheese nip crumbs in a shallow baking dish or pie pan
put sour cream in a shallow baking dish or pie pan.
coat chicken in the sour cream
roll it in the cheese nip crumbs
place on baking sheet coated lightly with non stick spray
bake in oven at 375 until chicken is cooked through and
breading is slightly darker and crispy.

YUMMO..

YUMMY! EVERYTHING SOUNDS DELICIOUS!

I love Braised Balsamic Chicken from Allrecipes.com.

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Directions

Season chicken breasts with ground black pepper and garlic salt. Heat olive oil in a medium skillet, and brown the onion and seasoned chicken breasts.
Pour tomatoes and balsamic vinegar over chicken, and season with basil, oregano, rosemary and thyme. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes.
