    I like to season it with salt & pepper, set it on a piece of foil (also put some frozen broc on the foil) and drizzle with a little ranch and shredded cheddar, then fold the foil into a little packet and bake.

    I cut a slit, put in a jalapeno stuffed with low fat cream cheese & grill or bake, you can also wrap bacon around it

    Depends on how many servings I want. For 4 servings I would go for 1kg.

    Just want to make sure we are on the same page - I meant how much chicken for the rest of the ingredients?

    It's the tail end of hatch chile season. Get a pound (or a bushel), get them roasted if your store has a roaster. If not, a pound is easy to roast over open flame. Just keep rotating it until the skin is blistered all over then stick them in a paper or plastic bag for 10 minutes. Makes the skin & seeds easy to remove. Let me know if you need a hatch chile sauce recipe. It's simple once you have the chiles roasted & peeled. That can be used on chicken breasts, burritos, enchiladas, eggs... gosh, anything can be a vehicle for hatch chile sauce. Best and highest use: hatch chile stew.

    Also, I didn't see anyone mention chicken mole. Dona Maria mole in a jar mixed with chicken stock is really hard to beat (particularly considering how stupid easy the jar is compared to how painstaking it is from scratch). I put it on a tostada or, when in season, acorn squash. It's sublime with the natural sweetness of the winter squash.

    In the same vein, tomatillo sauce. Buy a pound, soak, remove husks & rinse. Pack tightly in pot, almost cover with water & boil the hell out of them until they disintegrate into sauce. Add salt & if you have it, cilantro. Makes great chicken enchiladas with sour cream (or greek yogurt) and queso fresco on top. Also makes a great one-pot dish where you cook chicken and rice together & mix in tomatillo sauce +cheese, if desired.

    !Buen provecho!

    Put some mustard on it, then the seasoning. Cook it over really hot fire for a few seconds on each side. Then cook slow until done.

    Saffron! Poach chicken with some sweet cream butter and grey sea salt. Sprinkle some saffron on the chicken - let saffron ‘bloom’ in the moisture from the chicken....smells and tastes wonderful!

    This cookbook has helped me: https://www.amazon.com/Just-Add-Sauce-Revolutionary-Everything/dp/1945256249
    It's a cookbook of just sauces. So you can take chicken and veggies, grilled/sauteed/sheet pan etc, and change them up with different sauces to make something different and interesting. Stir fry sauces, dressings, yogurt sauces, pasta sauces, marinades, glazes, etc. Just get friendly with the recipe builder in MFP - I save the sauces as their own recipes in there so even if I put it on say pork tenderloin instead of chicken next time I can just re-use the entry.
