    You don't have to eat salad to lose weight... Just FYI.

    Anyway this recipe is great. I had it with rice. I guess you could make lettuce wraps with it though...

    I'm a little confused by the question - are you looking for chicken to put on top of salads or just chicken in general? This isn't a chicken for salad, but this recipe tastes very similar to sweet and sour chicken - http://www.melskitchencafe.com/kansas-city-sues-chicken-slow-cooker/

    If you're asking about chicken on top of salads, there's this Molasses Bacon seasoning that McCormick makes that's to die for and would be great on a chicken topping for a salad. :smiley:

    Thai Peanut Chicken Wraps :smiley:

    Slice up 1/2 lb chicken breasts into thin strips, season with salt & pepper. Coat a skillet with coconut oil over medium high, throw 6 oz broccoli slaw in the pan for 2-3 minutes, then remove it. Throw a little more oil in there, then cook your chicken through.

    Make sauce! 2 tbsp natural peanut butter, 1 tbsp each honey, water, soy sauce. Add a clove of garlic and some ginger too. Stir it all together. Dump this over your broccoli slaw, add 1/8 cup of peanuts. Mix it up.

    Cut up a red bell pepper into strips.

    Divide the chicken, pepper, and broccoli slaw among 4 small tortillas. Fold the tortillas into a burrito shape then place them seam side down in the skillet for a minute or so to seal them.

    Then eat! This is enough to make 2 servings of 2 tortillas each. So share or have leftovers. Clocks in at about 600 calories.

    Simple way to prepare mouth watering chicken!

    Use skinless and boneless chicken breasts. Pound for even thickness. Poke breasts several times on both sides with fork. Place in a plastic gallon size storage bag. Pour in Lawrys Hawiian marinade or Caribbean Jerk. Place flat in refrigerator for a couple of hours, turning after one hour for even marinade. Take out, place Breast in hot skillet sprayed with pam. Reserve leftover marinade. Sear chicken on high heat each side until brown. Reduce heat to medium high and cook chicken an additional 5 minutes on each side- use additional marinade as needed to keep small amount of liquid in pan. Take out and let rest for 5 minutes and serve! Yum!

    if you get tired of chicken breasts you can always switch over to boneless, skinless thighs for awhile. They are more forgiving then chicken breast as they are much more difficult to overcook. I like them for crockpot recipes, but have also been known to throw one on the grill with some seasoning for a chicken sandwhich

    A number of Sicilian recipes for chicken and fish are agrodolce (sweet and sour); here's a good one:

    Here's a fantastic marinade for chicken. Cheap because I make it at home and it makes great grilled chicken. I marinate it for 2 days normally. I cut the boneless breasts in half and pound them. Make a bunch for sandwiches, salads or with anything.

    Greek dressing

    1/2 cup olive oil
    1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
    1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
    1-1/2 teaspoons dried basil
    1-1/4 teaspoons pepper
    1-1/4 teaspoons salt
    1-1/4 teaspoons onion powder
    1-1/4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
    1/4-3/4 cup red wine vinegar


    The vinegar I put 1/4 cup and then adjust to taste. 3/4 is too much for me. Sometimes I mix in some balsamic too.

    All I do for chicken is buy the already seasoned stuff at Albertsons (or use a little of your favorite rub), and spray a skillet with cooking spray. I put chicken in the skillet on medium heat, and put the lid on, then turn chicken over every half hour until done. The spray locks in the moisture and the lid helps cook the inside of chicken buy trapping the heat. My chicken is always moist and juicy, and with the rub has a lot of flavor.

    Cajun chicken , I bought Cajun seasoning from the meat market marinate the chicken in that overnight in the morning put it in the crockpot or oven..... Crockpot on low for 6 hrs when it's done it's the best chicken. I ate for 3days straight and was mad when I didn't have any more

    Tell me what you think. Waiting for chicken breasts to be on sale and I'm definitely doing it again (I found cheap tenderloins for the broccoli chicken so I used those).
