    Take a casserole dish, put a bunch of veg in the bottom - kale is good, but for ease, I also like a combo of broccoli/cauliflower and bell pepper strips (I use bags of frozen veg). Add chicken breasts (I use the tenderloins) on top, then season (lemon pepper, garlic, or whatever suits your fancy). Cover and bake for about 30 min (350*), then add some cheese (feta, swiss, parm, cheddar - again - whatever suits your fancy) and put back in the oven to melt. Everyone LOVES this at my house, and since it's a really versatile recipe, it never really gets old.

    Dorrito Ranch Chicken
    2 Servings | 195 Calories

    2 Bags (snack size) Nacho Cheese Dorritos
    1 pkt Ranch Dressing Dip Mix
    1 Egg
    2 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts

    Preheat oven to 375° F. Pound chicken breasts to 1/4" thickness. In a shallow bowl, whisk egg with a little bit of water. Empty the contents of the ranch dressing dip mix into another shallow bowl. Crush dorritos in a bag with a rolling pin or heavy can or use a food processor. Place the dorritos in another shallow bowl. Coat each chicken piece in the ranch dip mix, then egg, then dorritos. Place on a greased baking sheet and cook for 12-15 minutes or until cooked through.

    I have one...but it's not for the oven, but the crock pot. Takes 5 minutes to prep and set it and forget it!


    Ingredients:

    Chicken Breasts - how many ever you want
    Jar of your favorite salsa (I experiment with different flavors)
    Jasmine Rice

    Put chicken breasts in crock pot...dump jar of salsa over. Cook in crock pot 4-6 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low.

    At meal time, prepare Jasmine rice as directed on package. Serve chicken over rice.

    This is awesome as leftovers as well. My family loves this dish...and I love that it literally takes me less than 5 minutes to prep.

    omg I would love to try this. I don't know if anyone else would eat it though. they're no fun!

    ohhhhhhh, here is the most easy and delic chicken recipe ever. Got it from a friend but modified it to be healthy.

    3-4 lbs chicken breast
    2 cans white beans drained and rinsed
    1pt cherry tomatoes
    1/4-1/5 cup white wine
    salt, pepper, and garlic, to your tasting.
    a few rosemary sprigs and a sprinkle of thyme (really I there isn't an amount, just go with what you like)


    Place beans in a glass baking dish, add chicken on top, add wine, tomatoes then spices and cook at 350 until juices run clear. I think it took about 30 min last time I made it. This is so great the next day too! <<drool>> It's a good base for adding other things too (like bell peppers if you like them).
    this sounds so good! I'm saving this one!

    Boil or steam a cauliflower, then run it through a food processor or a ricer.
    Cover the bottom of a glass pan
    Cover that with chili
    Cover that with chicken (cook beforehand in a pan)
    Bake at 350 for 20 minutes
    Take out, cover with cheese
    Bake for another 5-7 minutes or until cheese is all melty.

    I am a bit of a laughing cow addict lately, so I put it in everything. Something simple: Grill or bake a chicken breast, seasoned to your liking, spread laughing cow cheese and salsa on top. Yummy with steamed broccoli!
    I also got creative the other night and came up with this and it was sooo good.

    4 Boneless Skinless Chicken breasts (Around 700g for my stats)
    6 Laughing Cow Light Cheese Wedges
    Broccoli florets (About 90g)
    Red bell pepper (About 1/2 cup)
    3 medium white mushrooms

    Chop up the veggies into small little bits. Mix all together with laughing cow.
    Meanwhile, pound the chicken breasts until thin. Divide veggies mixture evenly among the breasts, rolling and pinning with toothpicks. I baked at 375 for 45 minutes, then at 450 for 5 minutes to brown it.
    Makes 4 servings, and each serving was 171 calories, 3 carbs and 3 grams of fat. I just boiled some potatoes and microwave "steamed" some carrots. Was really good!

    i recently tried lemon pepper chicken..

    wash your chicken really good. sprinkle on some lemon pepper seasoning (found in spices isle at grocery store) and pop in the oven covered and bake for 45 min to 1 hour.
  • Fake Chicken "Parm"

    I don't have exact measurments for this:
    2 boneless/skinless chicken breasts
    1-2 sticks string cheese (depending on how big the breasts are)
    some thawed spinach
    low fat shredded mozzerella cheese
    1/2 Jar your favorite spaghetti sauce

    Wrap spinach around the string cheese
    Cut into the chicken breasts, stick the string cheese in the middle (1/2 of one for small breast, whole one for larger)
    Place in a sprayed 8x8 pan
    Top with sauce
    Cover with cheese
    Bake at 375 for about 25-30 minutes or until juices run clear.
    ENJOY! =)

    This is really good but my hubby doesn't like rice, so I serve over some kind of low cal pasta.
