boneless chicken breast

slit it open down the side and stuff it with mozerella cheese and olives....yummmm, or coat it with something like french fried onions or a little shake n bake

For future reference, I love Mrs. Dash Chicken seasoning (all the seasonings really). I put it on chicken, turkey, pork.

For tonight, you could use other spices like cumin, cayenne, smoked paprika, coriander, etc and broil it.

You could slice it up and grill it with some onions and green pepper, a little EVOO.

Chicken packet in foil with some onion, garlic and pepper. Roasted garlic is really yummy with chicken too..hmm that's all I can think of, sorry!

I've come to use other herbs, like dill, rosemary, etc. and hardly use salt at all. You could portion it out and use the seasoning for him and what you like for you if you want. good luck

garlic, onions, and Ms. Dash and McCormick have tons of seasonings with no sodium. Also, there is a few salsas that you can layer over the chicken, that are low in sodium, Walmart has a peach pineapple chipotle that is awesome, and only has like 20 mg for 2 tbs.

I love chicken! For seasoning try picking up the Mrs. Dash No Salt collection of spices. LOVE them.

But, what I love is using a little Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) w/ thyme, rosemary and maybe a little fennel. Now these are best fresh and not in the jars but jars work just fine as I use them too. For fennel what I do is cut the leaves and bulb (like an onion) and cook like that; don't use the fennel seeds as I personally think it is too overpowering.

You can use Pam Olive Oil cooking spray or a little EVOO in the pan. Fry it just a little til browned then finish off baking. Maybe 350 for about 25 min depending on size of chicken breasts!

I'm having Oven-Fried Parmesan Chicken:

1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tbsp. low-fat milk
1/3 cup Parmesan
1/3 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp blk pepper
2.5 pds boneless (skinless preferred) chicken breast
Nonstick cooking spray

Preheat oven to 375. Combine egg and milk in 1 dish, Combine Parmesan, breadcrumbs and spices in another dish. Dip chicken pcs in egg/milk and then Parmesan mixture. Place chicken in nonstick cooking spray covered pan, making sure the pcs don't touch. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink inside. No need to turn this chicken while baking.

Seriously delicious and so easy!

I love Enchilada Chicken! Here is the Recipe:

Ingredients:

4 (4-ounce) trimmed boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons salt-free Mexican or Southwest seasoning (I used Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle)
Olive oil spray
4 tablespoons medium, mild, or hot enchilada sauce
2 ounces (1 cup) finely shredded Cabot's 75% Light Cheddar Cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Season each chicken breast evenly on all sides with the seasoning. Place a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over high heat. When hot, lightly mist with the olive oil spray and add the chicken. Cook, turning once, for 1 to 2 minutes per side, or just until the chicken is golden brown on the outside.

Remove the pan from the heat and top each chicken breast with 1 tablespoon of the enchilada sauce, followed by one-fourth of the cheese and one-fourth of the cilantro. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the cheese is melted.

I second everyone that has suggested Mrs. Dash. Those seasonings have been a huge sodium saver for me! I use them on EVERYTHING - pork, beef, chicken, fish, AND veggies (great on baked potatoes, even). I buy a different flavor every week at the grocery and I am slowly building my sodium-free arsenal.

Bump! Great Ideas for later!
