Hey everyone.
I know this has probably been covered before in previous posts but I am looking for yummy chicken breast recipes.
I live in an apt so I don't have a grill so cooking chicken for me has become very boring and I need something to spice it up.
If you can please post pictures as well. I am a visual person and love to see things before doing it.

    I don't know if you like ground chicken, but I made some great ground chicken breast meatballs yesterday. It was very simple.

    Ground chicken breast
    frozen spinach
    parmesan cheese
    egg whites
    salt and pepper to taste
    bread crumbs.

    Just thaw and drain the spinach very well, mix 2lbs ground breast with 1 frozen box of spinach, 2 egg whites, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup parm cheese and salt and pepper to taste.

    They were moist and yummy...good luck!

    Oh...bake in the oven at 375 for aboutn 20 minutes....

    I love chicken cacciatore...

    my recipe (feeds four)

    3-4 chicken breasts cut into bite sized chunks
    1-2 courgette/zucchini sliced
    pitted Black olives
    1x 400g tin of cherry tomatoes (tinned chopped tomatoes will do)
    3-4 cloves garlic finely chopped
    1 red & 1 yellow pepper sliced
    1 large onion sliced
    Rosemary chopped
    Parsley chopped

    Pre heat oven to gas mark 6, (or alternatively put into slow cooker at oven stage)

    In a large deep frying pan, heat some oil and brown off the chicken, once browned add the onions, peppers and courgettes cook for a few minutes until softend then add the garlic cook for a few minutes being sure not to burn the garlic or it will taste bitter.
    Transfer into an oven proof dish (with a lid) or into slowcooker. Add tinned tomatoes mix together add rosemary and olives and cook for approx 40-45 mins in the oven or around 4-6 hours in slow cooker.

    Serve with rice or pasta, or just some lovely crusty bread to soak up the juices!

    I found a slow cooker chicken recipe yesterday.
    Place chicken breasts in slow cooker
    Add low sodium chicken broth until covered
    Add taco seasoning
    And let it cook
    You can have it on salads or sandwiches or what ever you would like! :)

    I just posted this last night. Hope this one will help.
    Baked Mediterranean Chicken

    1/4 cup light cream cheese
    1/2 cup roasted red peppers
    2 tbsps shredded parmesan cheese
    2 cups baby spinach
    3 medium chicken breasts
    2 tbsps butter
    DirectionsCut chicken breasts in half through the centre, and pound flat to make 6 cutlets.
    In a bowl, add cream cheese, parmesan cheese and chopped roasted red pepper.
    Heat butter in a pan, and sauté spinach until wilted. Remove from pan and chop.
    Add to bowl and mix with a spoon. Season with salt, pepper, or other preferred herbs and spices.
    Spread a large spoonful of the mixture over each chicken cutlet.
    Roll the cutlets and place on a lightly greased pan or parchment paper, seam-side down. Season with salt and pepper.
    Bake at 400° F (200° C) for 45-60 minutes (depending on your oven). Remove, let cool and enjoy!
    Note: would also be great topped with a little tzatziki or other dressing.
