Me and my husband are trying to cut back on our red meat, I love chicken and pork, but my husband can only eat chicken for soooo many days and hates pork!... I want to know if any one has any good marinades for chicken, or healthy chicken ideas? we really want to start using our grill sense its getting nice out :) any ideas?

    baked chicken parmesean .... pound out the chicken, dip in egg beaters and dip in a small amount of italian bread crumbs (total of 1/4 cup for 2 breasts). Bake uncovered at 375 for about 20 - 25 minutes. Top each chicken breast with 1/2 cup (or so) of spaghetti sauce (or marinara sauce) and bake for another 5 minutes. I serve mine on steamed broccoli instead of pasta, but if you are ok with the calories etc. serve over pasta.

    I love chicken parm. if you dont like having to pound them out publix sells thin sliced cutlets, and instead of bread crumb i hand crumble reduced fat ritz cracker. Season them up with garlis celery seed italian seasoning etc... just turns out a bit crispier than the usual fake bake fry. Also giving each breast a light spritz of cooking spray really helps. Pam has a great organic version.

    My favorite seasoning for grilling is the old school poulrty magic by chef paul prudon (sp?). Lots of flavor great for sandwiches or salads when you don't want to use too much dressing. HTH

    I usually just pour about 1/4 cup of a vinaigrette dressing that I have in a bag with two chicken breast. Low calorie, super easy and soooo tasty!!
