Here's a recipe I tried last night for Curried Chicken Breasts. It was pretty tasty, and easier than making my usual curry sauce.

http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/curried-chicken-breasts-50400000117396/

I eat a lot of chicken as I don't eat red meat, One of my favourite recipes is to cover the chicken breast in light Philadelphia, the grilled pepper one is best, sliced button mushrooms, chopped baby plum tomatoes, chopped spring onions and a bit of dark french mustard, all wrapped in foil and cooked in the oven, I also cook this on the bbq when we go camping.

Balsamic chicken pasta
take one pound of chicken and cut into bite size pieces.. saute onion and garlic(fresh) in olive oil and add the chicken.. Cook until no longer pink. add about a cup of chicken broth and let reduce. serve on top of angel hair pasta with a balsamic reduction.. shave fresh asiago or parm. cheese on top garnish with cherry tomatoes cut in half

Chicken strips
cut into strips and use your favorite thick salad dressing (make sure you use lite or fat free) Dip into a mixture of panko, italian bread crumbs and parmesan cheese bake at 375 until no longer pink (sooo good)

Stuffed Chicken
Pound your chicken until about 1/2 inch thick lay spinach, provolone, and some low sodium ham roll into a pinwheel and top with your favorite red sauce and bake until no longer pink.. top with some more provolone and throw it under the broiler until cheese is nice and bubbly

Tonight i'm making chicken caesar pinwheels with caesar dressing, spinach and fresh parmesan.. rolling it up and topping with panko bread crumbs and baking it

My fave is to bake with white wine
I dredge the chicken breasts in olive oil, then rub with garlic and rosemary (fresh when I have them), put in baking pan with about a 1/2 inch of white wine coating the bottom of the pan - I cook at 450 for at least 40 minutes

My next fave is to heavily sprinkle grated parmasan cheese on them before baking - makes a nice flavorful crust

Hubby likes both of these and he's really the cook in the family - but he still doesn't understand how they turn out so juicy when I cook them at such high heat. He never cooks chicken breast at 450

That sounds awesome!!!

Grill breasts, boil some whole wheat noodles, and mix altogether with some peas and pesto (jarred or homemade)....a hit with my kids too!

Wow, that is what I am cooking right now. I am adding broccoli and grape tomatoes.

Marinate in low sodium soy sauce, Turmeric, cracked pepper and fresh rosemary. Marinate at least 30-60min. BBQ until brown. Throw into a bowl with Jack Daniels BBQ sauce. Serve.

Easy thing to do is put frozen boneless, skinless breasts in the crock pot with a jar of salsa (whatever you like, medium, hot, etc) and a clove of garlic. Cook on low about 5-6 hrs and then shred it. You can have it on top of salad or as tacos, etc.

I also get a dry BBQ rub from a local market and just bake them with the rub and a drizzle of EVOO.

You can also use dry ranch seasoning mix as a rub and bake them - one of my kids FAVES!

I don't often use white meat chicken though. ): Usually too dry for me. But those are the few things I do.

I brush mine with stone ground mustard and sprinkle them with dry ranch dressing. I cook them in the crockpot on low all day. YUM!

OMG that sounds FABU!!

Ingredients:
4 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 cup (3.2 oz) frozen stir fry vegetables
2 tbsp bottled teriyaki sauce (or whatever you prefer)

Cut raw chicken into small pieces, pre-heat and spray a saute pan with Pam Olive Oil and cook on medium heat until done (4 min ish)
then toss in the frozen stir fry veggies and a couple tbsp of bottled teriyaki sauce.

OMG!!! Skinnytaste.com is amazing! Thank you:happy:
