I do a pretty tasty better version of chicken salad. First, I bake the chicken breast and let it cool a little. Then I shred it into a bowl. In another bowl I use light or fat free miracle whip (which I actually like better than mayo, taste wise, anyway) and mix with just a little bit of mustard to make it light yellow in color. For one serving, like tuna salad, I only use about a tablespoon of the MW per serving. Just enough to moisten it a little. Then you can add in your "extras". Depending on my mood, I'll do celery and onion, or I'll do halved grapes and a couple chopped walnuts. I like the sweetness of the grapes and the crunch of the nuts. Green onion makes a good addition to the grape/walnut one too, if you have any stalks of those laying around.
I also like just plain chicken breast grilled or boiled with Nature's Seasoning sprinkled on it. |
oh tonight with the chicken I baked them in the oven sprayed them with a little olive oil pam, seasoned them with a littel salt and fresh ground pepper put a slice of low fat swiss cheese on top and a pineapple ring... it was yummers!

I like to make one pot wonders, and chicken breast is perfect for this. When we want mexican I toss in a chopped up onion, 1 cup brown rice couple cans of diced tomatoes (drain and measure the liquid) finish out the liquid with water to make 2 cups water, add either packaged taco seasoning or I use onion and garlic powder, red pepper, and a salt. Add chopped chicken breast--can even be frozen. Start that up, while it is cooking drain a can of black beans, chilies if you want, corn if you want (I omit when using tortillas) When the rice is almost done add the beans and corn and chilies. I serve this alone or with tortillas, a little fat free sour cream and spicey salsa.
We also make an italian stir fry, broc, zuchini, chicken, onion, peppers, all cooked up together (chicken starts first, cut up) add tons of garlic. Cook WW pasta. Add a can of italian seasoned tomatoes, more garlic powder and a little bit of the pasta water. let that simmer down a little, drain the pasta and add, toss together and add parmesean cheese, I also add red pepper flakes quick dinner, bake the chicken with a little canned spaghetti sauce, top with a low fat motzerella cheese and put all on top of ww pasta.........my kids make this all the time Key for me is to cook thoroughly but never over cook, once you do that chicken will become such a chore! |
I just made some chicken the other day for my family. I layed six of the frozen chicken breasts on a lightly pamed baking sheet and sprinkled with salt pepper and dried oregano. It baked up pretty quickly and I served it cut up with whole wheat pasta and some tomatoe sauce. sooo YUMMY

Hmm, well tonight I am marinading them in teriyaki sauce for some grilled chicken...YUM!
Last night I diced them up, sauteed with cumin, chili powder and garlic, then added a can of Rotel and simmer until most of the liquid has reduced. Grab a ww tortilla and put the chicken mixture on the tortilla. Top with lowfat shredded cheese and toast in the toaster for a really yummy chicken quesadilla. Jack Daniels makes an excellent honey teriyaki marinade for chicken. Also, I like a marinade with honey, soy sauce, garlic and lime juice. YUM! |
I like to pound the chicken out nice and flat, sprinkle with garlic powder. Then I put some chopped up broccoli and a few chunks of low fat chedder cheese, wrap it up and bake it, Its REALLY good.
Also I dice it up and cook it on the stove in a non stick frying pan, then I add about 1/4 cup of salsa, and same amount of corn. Add a bit of water and let it simmer till it thickens up a bit. Then I serve it on cous cous. And depending how good the rest of my day was, I will sprinkle some grated cheese ontop. |
Hi
I boil them and when they cool, I shred them with a fork and knife. Then I put them in a pan with a pkg of Taco Seasoning and a 1/4 cup of water. I cook them until the water is gone. Then I put the chicken on corn tostados with no-fat refried beans, lettuce, tomato and onion. They are wonderful. Enjoy !!!! |
Pound out chicken breasts and marinate in italian dressing. Grill or broil and top with a salad of arugula, diced roma tomatoes & baby fresh mozz (if you have the calories for it) tossed in a little bit of olive oil and balsamic, salt and pepper.
Make chicken parm without breading the chicken, just pan cook and top with sauce and 2% mozz, pop under the broiler to melt the cheese. |
