Low fat chicken piccata is really delicious too (lemony) served with brown rice and a veggie,. I omit the capers, but some people like 'em.

Try layering a baking dish with some garlic, grape tomatos and cannellini beans. Season some chicken thighs with robust, italian seasonings.. ie, basil, oregano, garlic.. and a squeeze of lemon ya know Then roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, usually at about 375.

You get yummy, juicy chicken thigh with some roasted veg

The easiest thing ever - marinate a family pack of chicken breast (boneless/skinless of course) in fat free Italian dressing (1 bottle) overnight or all day while you are at work. Remove the chicken and put in another dish and bake until cooked. It is delicious. I serve it with mashed potatoes, (mix with skim milk or plain yogurt or no fat sour cream and garlic powder) fried cabbage, not really fried, just chopped and cooked in a non stick pan or pan sprayed with no cooking spray. Unfortunately, you do have to toss the leftover dressing but sooooo worth it!

I throw mine into a Ziplock bag the night before with a seasoning from Penzey's Spices called Chili 3000. I broil them, dice them and then put them on whole wheat tortillas with a couple of teaspoons of guacamole and fresh spinach. I can take the ingredients to work and assemble there for lunch. I love Penzey's Spices!

YUM!!!

bump - I'm starving now and these all sound good!

Buffalo Chicken "Cupcakes"
Source: Emily Bites Original

Ingredients:
2 c cooked boneless, skinless chicken breast, chopped up small
4 Laughing Cow Blue Cheese wedges, chopped
3 T Buffalo wing sauce (I used Anchor Bar brand)
½ a celery stalk, chopped small
16 wonton wrappers (typically found in the produce section)
4 oz (1 cup) reduced fat 2% shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:
1. Pre-heat the oven to 375. Lightly mist 8 cups in a muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside.
2. In a microwavable bowl, combine the chicken, cheese wedges and wing sauce. Microwave for 1 1/2 minutes on high. Stir to combine until chicken mixture is fully coated with cheese and wing sauce. Stir in the chopped celery pieces.
3. Push a wonton wrapper into the bottom of each of the eight sprayed cups in the muffin tin. Using about half of the chicken mixture, spoon evenly into the wonton wrappers. Sprinkle about half the cheddar cheese evenly over the top of each cup. Press another wonton wrapper on top and repeat the layering steps with the remaining ingredients.
4. Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown. Let cool 5 minutes before removing from muffin tin.
