    My favorite is rotisserie chicken, but I buy it from Sams club.

    Growing up we would marinate chicken in Italian dressing (good seasons - the kind you make with the envelope). Then we would grill it. It's delicious, but I don't think calorie friendly since the salad dressing is not low calorie.

    Marinate in olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, black pepper, and Greek seasoning blend then grill.

    Cornflake breaded chicken fingers
    I use 2 cups cornflakes (crushed) and 1/2 c grated Parmesan seasoned with salt and pepper for the breeding.
    This baked up nice and crispy. My five year old loves it! Great with sweet potato fries

    "Breading" not "breeding"

    I don't eat chicken breasts very often. My favorite way to cook chicken thighs with bones in and skin on them is to put them in a cast iron skillet and then in the oven on 420 until the skin is brown and crisp and the bones are showing. They are so moist and rich, I can only eat 1 and the half of another one. The organic ones don't seem to need any seasoning - but I have been known to dip pieces in siracha sauce. I save the cracklings and the fat for another meal (like rice and chicken livers). I know - how am I not huge?

    Couple favorites first is what we had last night 1 oz reduced fat feta cheese, 1 oz cream cheese i use neufchatel and then cut up spinach and a dash of garlic powder. Cut a slit in the chicken breast mix everything together and stuff the breast. So yummy. I also like just a breast seasoned with garlic powder, basil, and oregano. Very basic but yummy.

    I like to cut up chicken breast into chuncks and cook it on Catalina dressing there's quite a few calories in the dressing though. So always nice to hear new ideas!

    McCormick makes some really great spice blends. Our favorites are rotisserie, Asian and chipotle. We cook our chicken breasts in the nuwave oven with the rotisserie seasoning and it's a winner every time! My husband can't really eat meat other than chicken so we make every meal with it! Grind it up and make our own breakfast sausage (biscuits and gravy with this stuff Is life changing). Crockpot it with either salsa, bbq sauce, or salt/pepper/onion/garlic. Chinese food, white chicken chili, spinach feta chicken pita pizza...the list is endless.

    Brine chicken overnight in dill pickle juice, then pat dry, dunk in egg, then seasoned panko, and bake. It sounds crazy, but the pickle brine makes for really favorable, tender chicken. Not "the" healthiest, but not bad and really yummy.
