Honey-baked Chicken

Boneless skinless chicken

1 cup honey

½ cup chicken broth

¼ cup soy sauce

Place chicken in glass baking dish.  Mix remaining ingredients together.  Pour over chicken and bake at 350 degrees for one hour.  This works well with chicken tenders, breasts or thighs.  Use whatever you have available.

Alfredo Chicken Pizza

3/4 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
freshly ground black pepper
salt to taste
1 jar of alfredo sauce
2 c spinach
1 c grape tomatoes; chopped or diced
1 c grated mozzarella cheese

Preheat oven to 375.  Marinate chicken with with half of minced garlic, salt and pepper and leave for 15 mins. After that heat grill pan with 2-3 tbsp of oil and grill chicken over the grill pan until become completely done, it would take 8-10 min over medium-low heat. Then cut the grilled chicken into small chunks. Dust your pizza pan with flour to roll out the pizza dough. Pour the alfredo sauce over the dough, place the baby spinach, grape tomatoes, grilled chicken and mozzarella cheese. In the end brush the edges of the crust with olive oil and season with salt and pepper (if desired). Place the pan in preheated oven about 25 mins. until crisp and golden brown.

Salsa Chicken

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 cup salsa

1 taco seasoning packet

1 cup sour cream (I would start out with less and add to your liking)

1 can black beans, rinsed

shredded cheese

green onions

cilantro

rice

 

Put chicken, soup, salsa and taco seasoning in slow cooker.  Cook on low for 6 hours.  Shred chicken, if desired.  Stir in sour cream and heat until everything is combined. Serve over rice, top with cheese, black beans, green onions, and cilantro. Works great as a burrito, rolled in a tortilla shell or  served with tortilla chips.

Parmesan Chicken Fingers

2 1/2 - 3 lbs Chicken breasts cut into strips

1/2 cup sour cream (I use low-fat)

2 c. crushed cracker crumbs (I use Club crakers)

1 tsp. powdered garlic

3 Tbls parmesan cheese

1/4 c. melted butter

Mix cracker crumbs, garlic and parmesan cheese.

Coat chicken with sour cream.  

Dip chicken in crumb mixture.

Put single layer in baking pan and drizzle with melted butter.

Bake at 450 degrees until they are cooked through and golden brown, about 12 minutes.
