    saute in pan:
    diced frozen peppers
    optional spicy pepper or your choice
    red onion
    optional garlic
    oil

    how much of each depends if you're just making
    it for 1, or for everybody and their mom

    throw those in a dutch oven, crock pot, with
    frozen chicken- for quick cooking tenders work well
    for longer cooking breasts/thighs work better- bigger peices
    and a cup or more of your fav. tomato sauce or salsa.
    and some water

    i didn't measure how much of each liquid i just covered the chicken
    in tomato sauce and seasonings
    with a bit of water on the bottom of the dutch oven so the tomato sauce
    doesn't burn.
    check on it once in awhile, but will take about 1 hour -90 mins to cook on the
    stove, can't remember how long it took in the crock pot.
    best chicken ever, use your fav seasonings to make it different each time.

    Last week I made a buffalo chicken pizza.
    Cubed chicken breast, fat free ranch dressing, your favorite hot sauce, and mozzarella cheese. I used a whole wheat premade crust from the grocery store, but you can surely make your own.
    Use the ranch as your sauce base, and cooked cubed chicken gets smothered in hot sauce. Cheese up the top of it. Oven@ 400 for about 13 minutes and its good to go. You can make it lower cal with a different crust, or lower calorie cheese. It's like cheating your diet and eating pizza without actually going over your metrics.

    buffalo chicken in the crockpot
    I made this last night, it would be good in taco shells, on chips, or just alone. I ate it with brown rice black beans and light sour cream.

    boneless skinless chicken
    hot sauce (whichever you like, though I used sweet baby rays buffalo marinade)
    jar of salsa
    fiesta ranch packet

    throw it all in there and put it on high for 4 hours. shred it. your done!


    Spinach Artichoke Chicken
    thin sliced chicken breasts 2 @ around 4-6 oz
    artichokes 1/2 cup
    plain greek yogurt 1/4 cup (could use mayo too, but I don't care for it)
    part skim mozzarella cheese 1/4 cup-1/2 cup
    spinach chopped however much you want

    in a bowl I mixed all of the above ingredients together. I browned the chicken in a pan, you can use olive oil, but I just used cooking spray. Top with the mixture above, you can sprinkle some remaining cheese on the top too. bake in the oven around 400 for about 5 minutes, then set it to broil until the chicken and cheese just start to brown.

    YUM, I always make this recipe and put the other in the fridge for the next day :)

    This "sesame chicken" is from my WW days, its still so good!

    Sautee small pieces of chicken breast in a bit of oil/spray & garlic. Make a sauce out of 1tbsp honey, 1tbsp soy sauce, some sesame seeds, ginger, and chili sauce. Pour the sauce over the chciken and heat it for like a minute, serve over jasmine rice.

    Two of my favorites!!!


    Herb & Kefir Grilled Chicken


    3 lb of boneless chicken breast
    3/4 cup of Kefir milk
    2 tbsp Dijon mustard
    2 garlic cloves minced
    2 tsp each dried oregano, basil, thyme & rosemary
    1/4 tsp celtic sea salt & pepper
    Directions

    In a large bowl, combine Kefir milk (in lieu of buttermilk in original recipe), mustard, garlic, oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper. Add chicken, turning pieces to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours (or up to 24 hrs), turning chicken occasionally.

    Place chicken on greased grill over medium heat; grill, turning occasionally, until juices run clear when chicken is pierced or use a food thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165F.




    Honey Lime Grilled Chicken

    1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
    1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (2 limes), plus the zest of both limes
    2 Tablespoons honey
    1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1 teaspoon kosher salt
    1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
    2 pounds of chicken (I used boneless skin-on breasts, but use whatever suits you)

    In a large zip top plastic bag combine all of the ingredients except the chicken. Seal bag completely and mix well. Add chicken to bag, turn to coat and reseal. Place in refrigerator overnight.

    Heat grill (either outdoor grill, or indoor grill pan) to medium high. Grill chicken for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. If you're using fairly thin chicken breasts, cut time down.

    One baking dish: Chicken, veggies, spices, and cut red potatoes... bake at 400 til chicken is done (depends on how many breasts you use). Also delish!

    Crockpot: chicken, black beans, salsa, canned corn, onions, jalapenos (other mexian fixin's??)... Low for 8 hours or High for 4 hrs... serve with rice OR over baked sweet potato

    Made this one the other day for the first time, my whole family loved it.

    Lighter Chicken Parmesan
    from America's Test Kitchen Healthy Family Kitchen

    3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 8 oz each)
    1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    1/2 cup all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
    3 large egg whites
    1 tablespoon water
    2 cups tomato sauce, warmed (store-bought or homemade (see recipe below))
    3/4 cup shredded mozzarella
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

    Place the chicken on a cutting board. Working with one breast at a time, place your hand on top and use a sharp knife to cut the breast in half horizontally, to make two thinner chicken cutlets. (Don't worry if they're not perfectly even, mine never are!) Place each cutlet between two sheets of plastic wrap and use a meat mallet or skillet to pound to 1/4-inch thickness.

    Preheat oven to 475 F. Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet and spray the rack with cooking spray. Set aside.

    Add the panko and oil to a 12-inch skillet, and stirring frequently, toast the breadcrumbs until they are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer the breadcrumbs to a wide, shallow dish and allow to cool briefly, then add the Parmesan and stir. In a second shallow dish, mix the flour and garlic powder. Finally, add the egg whites and water to a third dish, and beat with a fork until frothy.

    Pat the chicken dry then season both sides with salt and pepper. One at a time, dip the cutlets in the flour, then the egg whites and the panko mixture. Press the panko onto the chicken to completely coat. Transfer the cutlets to the wire rack you sprayed earlier.

    Spray the tops of the cutlets with cooking spray then bake for about 10 minutes, or until the chicken registers betwen 150 and 160 F on an instant read thermometer. Remove from the oven, and top each piece of chicken with 2 tablespoons each of sauce and mozzarella. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese has melted and the chicken is cooked through (160-165 F), about 3-4 minutes. Sprinkle with the basil before serving.

    Serves 6

    CHICKEN BOLOGNESE WITH RIGATONI

    Serves 4 to 6

    5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

    2 pounds (1 kg) coarsely ground chicken

    Salt

    Freshly ground black pepper

    1 medium white onion, trimmed and cut into small dice

    2 medium carrots, trimmed, peeled, and cut into small dice

    1 medium celery stalk, trimmed and cut into small dice

    4 or 5 garlic cloves, minced

    2 tablespoons tomato paste

    1 1/2 cups (375 ml) dry white wine

    2 1/2 pounds (1.25 kg) Roma tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped

    3 cups (750 ml) good quality canned chicken broth, heated

    Pinch minced fresh oregano leaves

    Pinch minced fresh thyme leaves

    6 or 7 fresh basil leaves, chopped

    Pinch red pepper flakes

    2 pounds rigatoni

    Heat a 10- or 12-inch (25- or 30-cm) saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and, as soon as it is hot enough to swirl freely, add the ground chicken and saute until lightly browned, breaking up the pieces as they cook, 7 to 10 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and transfer to a colander to drain. Set aside.

    In the same saute pan over medium heat, heat the remaining olive oil. Add the onion, carrots, and celery and saute only until they just start to color, 6 to 8 minutes, taking care not to let them brown. Add the garlic, stir in the tomato paste, and saute until well blended and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes more.

    Add the wine and stir and scrape with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan deposits; then continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until almost all the liquid has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes more. Add the tomatoes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes; then pour in the broth and reserved chicken, stir in the oregano and thyme, and season with a little more salt and pepper.

    Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 30 minutes. If the sauce has thickened too much or you prefer a thinner sauce, add a little more broth.

    While the sauce is simmering, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Check the suggested cooking time on the rigatoni package and, at the appropriate time to have the pasta done when the sauce is ready, add the rigatoni to the boiling water. Cook until al dente, tender but still slightly chewy.

    Just before the pasta is done, stir the chopped basil and the red pepper flakes into the sauce. Taste and, if necessary, adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper.

    As soon as the pasta is done, drain it and, while it is still dripping slightly, toss it with the sauce. Serve immediately.

    I'm weird in that I take a small-to-medium chicken, put it in a roasting pan, season with pepper, paprika and cayenne and roast at 325 until done...

    Then eat entire chicken in two meals with a side of steamed broccoli.

    Each meal approximately:

    600 cals
    40g fat
    50g protein
    < 10g of carbohydrate.

    Yum.

    Sorry, not much of a recipe, I know, but delicious none-the-less.
