I went to Whole Foods today to pick up a few things, and walked out with a giant bag of chicken breasts. More chicken than I know how to cook. So...any suggestions for how to keep it entertaining would be appreciated. I'm bored with what I know.

Don't be so easy on yourself 'cause this one might be all that you have left

400 degrees on the good ole oven....

I like to take frozen chicken breast and throw them right on the pan. I flip mine every few minutes and as Im doing it Ill throw some Zesty Italian Dressing on it. Oh man its soo good once it cooks into it for about a half hour. Throw your favorite rice on the side and your good to go! For dessert: Angel Food Cake with crushed strawberries and whipped cream (the desert is a stretch but I just love it and cant have it very often becuase of the comatose amount of sugar in it.)

Freeze it and send it to me. I'll happily take some of that off your hands :)

Barbecue one night, chicken parm the next. Two recipes I never get sick of.

Use it to make tacos or burritos as well.

One of my favs is the recipe on the back of the stove top boxes. Lay the chicken in a 9 x 13, top with cream of mushroom soup and milk. Pour the stove top/water mixture on top and bake. 10 min to prep, and it's good.

stir fry strips, with whatever marinade you have in your cabinet, whatever frozen veggies you have in your freezer, and throw on salt, pepper, chicken seasoning, and whatever other stuff sounds good, throw a little matza meal or flour in there to make it thick, and voila! (I throw most of our meals together on a whim like that and pray the clan'll like it)...but it usually turns out surprisingly good...last week I wanted a chicken picatta style chicken, just w/o the butter/cream, so I substituted here and there and realized I didn't have lemons or lemon juice, so I just substituted lime flavored beer and it turned out spectacular. If all else fails, dump some wine or beer on it and it will cook up great :)

Cut pockets in them and stuff with spinach, sundried tomatoes, and either fat free ricotta or fat free feta. Bake in the oven for 1 hour or so in covered 9x13 pan with oven at 400.

Get some boneless chicken thighs as well. They might be a little fattier but a great way to break up the monotony. Also check out recipes for chicken marsala. Tasty.

cheers

Slice thin (1/4") put it in a bowl and add some olive oil and Ms. Dash (whatever flavor you like, I prefer sundried tomato). heat a bit of olive oil in a skillet, saute, then put it on top of a salad with some feta cheese and basalmic dressing (Newmans is good).

Cooks fast, minimal prep time, yummy juicy chicken on salad.

Skin the chook, flour the chicken and brown it in a pan with Olive oil. In a large pot/bakeware container, mix Apricot Nectar (The real stuff, which you can get from whole foods), two packets of french onion soup and heat. Once it is hot, put the chook pieces in it and bake for about 2 hours on about 375, then remove teh lid and keep baking until the top browns off. Delicious. Serve over rice, with the juice. If you do it right the nectar thickens with the flour. Guiltfree pleasure.
