Your favorite chicken recipe?

QUICK!!! Give me your favorite recipe using boneless, skinless chicken breasts! Try to be healthy! THANK YOU!!Your favorite chicken recipe?
Well this isn't very healthy but it is mighty tasty!





Take your chicken breasts and lay them in a shallow baking pan.





Then in a bowl mix together





3/4 of a box of chicken stuffing ( stouffers ) or whatever kind of stuffing you like





1 and 1/2 can of cream of mushroom soup





1/2 can of milk





handfull of cheddar cheese





Mix this all together, then pour over the chicken





I'm not sure about the oven temp. but it bakes for about 40 minutes then when there is about 5 minutes left sprinkle some more cheese on top and let it get all nice and melted :)





Before putting in the oven be sure to cover it with tin foil.Your favorite chicken recipe?
this is a sort of mexican twist on chicken you need





the chicken breasts(of course)


1/2 tsp garlic powder


1/2 tsp. onion powder


drizzle olive oil or reg veg ok too


salt and pepper - To taste


1 16 oz jar of salsa or 15 oz can of diced tomatoes with chilis


a bag of a good mexican blend shredded cheese or cheddar





in a saute pan add oil then chicken breasts (seasoned with garlic and onion powder salt and pepper). sear on both sides try to lightly brown. when browned add the jar of salsa and cover for 20 minuted to incorperate flavors and to finish cooking the chicken. when plating add a bit of the sauce created allong with a sprinkle of the cheese. If you use low fat cheese and olive oil its a pretty healthy dish. I usually serve this with spanish rice or even reg. rice pilaf also does well.
Chicken cacciatore there's a very easy version, you will need some chicken pieces with or without the skin on, oil, a large diced onion , salt and pepper, some dry white wine and a tin or two of whole tomatoes (italian) in a saucepan fry the chicken till you get a bit of colour all over it ,add the onion and continue frying for another 5 minutes , add a glass of wine turn up the heat till it comes to a boil add the chopped tomatoes with their juice , add salt and pepper to taste turn down to low and simmer for half and hour or more to taste, serve with any rice, pasta, fries, green salad good luck

1 tsp olive oil


125g mushrooms, sliced


4 tablespoons green pesto


50g pine nuts


2 tsp parmesan cheese





1. Cook the spaghetti according to pack instructions and drain well.





2. Meanwhile heat the olive oil in a frying pan until smoking point, then add the diced chicken. Cook for 5 minutes, until the chicken is sealed on all sides.





3. Add the mushrooms and stir fry for a further 5 mins.





4. Add 2 tablespoons of pesto and the cashew nuts, and stir well. Simmer on a medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.





5. Drain the spaghetti well, reserving a tablespoon of water from the pan. Add the chicken mixture to the pan, along with the reminaing pesto, and stir well. Simmer for 3 - 5 minutes, until warmed through.

I soak it in Italian dressing, then grill it. It is easy and tastes great.
