Looking for Low Cal Bone-in Chicken Breast Recipes


Quote  |  Reply

Hi all!

I just checked the freezer situation and noticed I have a ton of bone-in chicken breasts.  The way I would normally make them would be high calorie, so I am wondering if anyone has any good recipes.  I'm going to be eating this for quite awhile, so need some help!

Thanks in advance!

I'd divide them up and cook them in different ways.  You could simply season and bake a couple at 350 f for about an hour, let them get cold and cut the meat up for salads etc.  If you add a little chicken broth to the pan while they're baking it will keep the meat moist.

You can make cacciatore - Bake them in tomato sauce, green peppers, onions, garlic.

Chicken Mexicana is easy - heat a jar of salsa in a pan and add a few chicken breasts.  Spoon some salsa over the top, cover and simmer until the meat is done.  It comes out juicy and spicy.

Hope this helps!

It does, I am stumped and sick of the same old same old I have been making (my own recipes) and need something different.
