Cheesy Chicken Parmesan

Last night for dinner we had chicken parmesan! Grilled of course =D

To make it. I dredged chicken tenderloins in egg whites, then a mixture of onion powder, garlic powder and italian seasonings. I heated an iron skillet and sprayed it with zero calorie spray. I then cooked the chicken in the skillet until done. I then poured marinara sauce on the chicken (homemade) and topped it with plenty of fat free shredded mozzarella. Put a lid on it and cook until sauce is heated and cheese is melted. YUM! I served it with a side of broccoli and corn on the cob.

For 3 servings:

1 Pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup marinara sauce

3/4 cup shredded fat free mozzarella cheese

Chicken Cordon Bleu for One

Tonight I was feeling very under the weather so I wanted something comforting and easy for dinner. I decided to make easy chicken cordon bleu. Sounds so fancy! So fancy it only took 3 ingredients =D I used:

1 4oz piece of chicken breast, pounded like a cutlet

1 serving fat free honey ham

1 Laughing Cow Light wedge cheese

I pounded the chicken breast into a cutlet, heated a skillet, and cooked it in the skillet until done. I then added the ham and cheese on top and put a lid on until it was all heated and melted.

As you can tell from the picture, I got a little impatient and ate it before the cheese melted. I have to say this simple chicken creation was so delicious! By far one of the best ways to make chicken. I am really craving this again tonight it was so good =D

Pizza-licious Chicken

Here is how I made this easy pizza chicken recipe:

I took one pound of chicken breasts, put them in a gallon ziplock bag, and pounded them into cutlets. I then heated a skillet, wiped it with EVOO, and added the chicken. I sprinkled onion powder, garlic powder, and salt on the chicken and cooked it until done. When it was done, I smothered each piece of chicken with pizza sauce from jar and topped them with light string cheese. I put a lid on top, turned the heat down to low, and let them simmer until the pizza sauce was heated and the cheese melted. Delish!!!

I had mine with a side of broccoli and Jody had his with a side salad =D

For one chicken:

5oz chicken

1/2 cup pizza sauce

1 light string cheese

BBQ Chicken Wrap

Tonight for dinner I had a BBQ Chicken Wrap with Roasted Veggies.

To make the wrap: I cooked boneless, skinless, chicken breasts in some stock in the crock pot all day. About an hour before dinner, I drained the stock out and shredded the chicken with a fork. It shreds very easily after being in the crock pot all day. Then I added a bottle of BBQ Sauce. I let this cook for about another hour. To assemble the wrap I simply took a Joseph Lavash 100 calorie wrap, put 3oz of the chicken in it, rolled it up, and cut it in half. I served this with a side of 1tbsp fat free cream cheese which I meant to spread on the wrap but forgot =D

To make the roasted veggies: I took brussel sprouts, carrots, and cauliflower. Added 1tbsp EVOO and kosher salt and cooked them in a 425 degree oven for about 20 minutes.

Herb Stuffed Chicken

Tonight for dinner I had Herb Stuffed Chicken. Sounds fancy-shmancy huh? Well not really. All I did was put a little garlic powder on a chicken breast and bake it in the oven. When it was done I split it open and put a piece of light Laughing Cow Cheese inside. Then I sprinkled a little parsley on top. Voila! Herb stuffed chicken. It was really yummy.

With the chicken I enjoyed 5 Monterey Spinach Ricotta raviolis and roasted vegetables.

To make the vegetables I sliced carrots and brussel sprouts, laid them on a baking sheet, sprinkled a little EVOO and salt on top and baked in the oven until done.
