    My son is an amazingly picky eater, and boneless, skinless chicken breasts are one of the few proteins he will eat. To give him a bit of variety, we do one of two things - one is your standard diet chicken parm - a couple of tablespoons of marinara (or in his case, the squeeze contadina pizza sauce) a light sprinkle of parm, and a light sprinkle of mozz.

    For the second, after preparing the breast, we heat 2 Tablespoons of sugar free orange marmalade in the microwave for 30 seconds and then baste the chicken in the sauce. He likes it, and I have found that the sugar free actually warms to a sauce better than the full sugar version.:smile:

    Sun Dried Tomato & Basil-Stuffed Chicken Rollatini

    (SERVES 4)

    * 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
    * 8 slices sun-dried tomatoes (in olive oil)
    * 1⁄4 cup fat-free ricotta cheese
    * 3 tsp.kosher salt, divided
    * 1⁄2 cup finely chopped fresh basil
    * 2 egg whites, beaten
    * 1⁄2 cup whole-wheat Panko bread crumbs
    * 1 tsp. black pepper
    * 1⁄2 tsp. garlic powder
    * Nonstick cooking spray


    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butterfly chicken breasts, then pound between clear wrap until they’re about 1⁄4- inch thick.

    2. Stir together sun-dried tomatoes, ricotta cheese and 1 teaspoon salt. Spread 1⁄4 of cheese mixture onto each chicken breast, then sprinkle basil on top. Roll up chicken breasts, tucking in loose pieces. Secure with toothpicks.

    3. Pour beaten egg whites into a flat dish. Mix breadcrumbs, remaining salt, pepper and garlic powder in a second flat dish.

    4. Dry rolled chicken breasts with a paper towel and place in egg whites, coat-ing completely. Then roll chicken in bread-crumb mixture until covered.

    5. Place chicken in a baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray, leaving space between each breast. Bake for 45–50 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving to help keep chicken moist.

    >> Besides providing lots of lean protein, chicken breast is a good source of the mineral selenium, which we know is critical for muscle strength and boosting the metabolism through better thyroid function.

    >> Whole-wheat Panko bread crumbs can be hard to find. Look for them in select health-food stores, or use regular Panko or American whole-wheat breadcrumbs. You could also try wheat germ for additional health benefits or grated Parmesan cheese to drop the carbs.

    "Fried" Buttermilk Chicken

    Marinating the chicken overnight in a flavorful buttermilk mixture adds flavor as well as moisture. Panko breadcrumbs make this dish extra crispy, but you can use regular breadcrumbs or even crushed baked potato chips.

    (Serves 6)
    Marinade:
    1 cup buttermilk
    1/2 small onion, cut into wedges (about 1/2 cup)
    2 tbsp chopped parsley
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1 tsp red wine vinegar
    1 tsp light brown sugar
    1 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp ground pepper

    Chicken:

    1 lb chicken tenders
    1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
    1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
    1/4 cup chopped chives
    Butter-flavored nonstick cooking spray

    1. Combine all marinade ingredients in a blender until smooth (about two minutes). Place chicken in a glass baking dish or a large zip-top plastic bag and pour marinade over it, stirring to mix well. Cover and marinate in refrigerator for at least four hours or overnight.

    2. Combine panko, Parmesan and chives in a shallow baking dish. Remove chicken from marinade and wipe off excess moisture. Dredge chicken in panko mixture and press mixture firmly into chicken. Coat a baking rack with cooking spray, and place chicken on rack over a baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes (this helps coating adhere to chicken). Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

    3. Remove chicken, rack and sheet from refrigerator and coat chicken with cooking spray. Bake for 20-23 minutes or until chicken is golden and cooked through. Serve warm with lemon wedges or fat-free ranch dressing.

    I love to season mine with a little McCormick's Montreal Steak seasoning and throw it on my George Forman Grill for about 10 minutes
