penny--here are a few ideas i make often...
Brown rice and chicken fried rice----you can basically add any veggies you want in here, i love to add tons of green peas, some almonds for crunch, some broccoli, i also scramble some eggwhites separately and fold them in at the end, i put low sodium soy sauce and powdered ginger and garlic, salt and pepper as seasoning. SO good..and so easy
Balsamic chicken--so easy, i just marinade the chicken in balsamic vinegar, a little honey, garlic powder, olive oil and salt and pepper---then throw on the pan till the outside carmelizes.
Almond crusted chicken, i marinade in the balsamic marinade, then just dredge in crushed almond, put on a baking sheet, and drizzle with olive oil---bake until browned.
Chicken Tandoor--marinade chicken overnight in a mixture of 0% (fat-free) fage greek yogurt, minced onion and garlic, cumin, garlic powder, salt, pepper, paprika and a dash of cayenne. Has to marinade overnight though so the chicken can soak up the yogurt. You can then bake it or if you have a grill pan, grill it. (careful with the pan smoking up though bc the yogurt sticks, i grilled mine over foil and it worked perfect)...i like to drizzle over some honey at the end.
...this isnt really a dinner meal--but so good..my sister made it yesterday and i almost polished off the whole thing
Chicken Salad with olives and red pepper---sounds weird but so good, just mix together chicken breast, with a lot of chopped black olives, and finely chopped red peppers, mix with a little bit of olive-oil mayo. so good
def trying these - the almond crusted chicken sounds delish!
