I want something that is fast, easy and also healthy... Does anyone have any suggestions?Does anyone have a good recipe for chicken?
Here's one that's super simple and suprisingly good.
1 pound boneless breast
1 bottle catalina dressing
Pace chicken in baking pan. Pour dressing over chicken. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake in 400 degree oven for about 1/2 hour (depending on your oven) or until chicken is done.
I serve this with mashed potatoes and a vegetable or salad. We use the dressing from the chicken as a gravy for the potatoes.Does anyone have a good recipe for chicken?
This is one of my favorite ways to make chicken:
Chicken with Herbed Cranberry Sauce
4 boneless chicken breast halves
3 TBS unsalted butter
1/4 C minced shallots or green onions
1 large bay leaf
1/4 C dry red wine
2/3 C canned whole berry cranberry sauce
1/2 C canned low-sodium chicken broth
1 TBS balsamic vinegar
Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until gold or just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to plate.
Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in same skillet. Add shallots or green onions and the bay leaf; saute 1 minute. Add wine and bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Boil until mix reduces to a thick glaze, about 4 minutes. Add cranberry sauce, broth and vinegar and cook until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Return chicken and any accumulated juices in the plate back to the skillet. Simmer until chicken is heated through, about 1 minute.
Season with salt and pepper, remove bay leaf. Transfer chicken to platter. Spoon sauce over.
I usually serve this with steamed rice and a side of green beans.

chicken + ketchup+mayonez
Roast Chicken With Lemony Gravy
Serves 4-6:
1 chicken weighing 1.75 鈥?2.25 kg (4-5 lb)
2 lemons,
2 tbsp olive oil
50g (1/4 cup) butter
1 tbsp flour
150ml (1/2 cup) chicken stock
Preheat oven to 350F/180C/gas 4. Cut one of the lemons into four pieces and place inside the chicken carcass. Squeeze the other lemon. Mix half the juice with the olive oil and rub into the chicken skin. Place in a roasting tin, and cook for 75-90 minutes, basting from time to time, until the skin is browned and the juices run clear when tested with a knife point. To make the gravy, melt the butter in a saucepan and stir in the flour. Cook for a couple of minutes, then gradually stir in the chicken stock and remaining lemon juice, stirring well to incorporate the liquid into the flour mixture to make a smooth sauce. Bring to the boil, stirring, and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Carve the chicken and serve with the lemony gravy.
How about some Hidden Valley Ranch chicken
1-pkg. Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix
1/4 C. olive oil (i use extra virgin)
1/4 C. vinegar
4-Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
Combine ranch dressing mix, oil, and vinegar in large, resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts and marinate in the fridge for at least one hour. Grill on medium hot coals for approximately ten minutes or until juices run clear.
This is quick, easy, healthy, and the clean up is great.
Cook it well.
Put some lemon pepper (found in the spice section) on it and stick it in a roasting pan.
Rub it with a low cal margarine and garlic (can use powdered garlic). stick it in a roating pan.
Rub it with a barbeque rub (found in the barbeque sauce section, but it is a dry rub). Stick it in a roasting pan.
Cook any of the above in the oven at 350 degrees until the meat falls off the bones when cut at the drumstick. Cook it a lot more if you see any bloody juice.
Take chicken breasts and cream soup. Cook the breasts until they are about finished. Add the cream soup straight out of the can and then add 1/2 the amount of water asked for, for the soup recipe. Also add water instead of milk. Easy Peasy. Works especially well with mushroom soup.
Take a low cal. barbeque sauce and plop it on some cut up chicken (I like to use chicken thighs or thighs with drumsticks). Put is into glass roasting pan (acidic things and aluminum don't go together). Turn it over in about 1/2 an hour and finish until cooked. Oven again at 350 degrees. Check for donest like above. This one has very little prep time. Just more cooking time.
Chicken is the easiest thing to cook in the world. Why do you think it is the largest amount of meat eaten in the world except for fish?
put it on a pizza they're always nice :D or make a stirfry

1 tablespoon flour
6 oz low-fat sour cream
Cut chicken breast into 3/4 inch squares. Saut茅 in small amount of vegetable oil over medium to medium-low heat. Dice onions and add to chicken.
