 Spiced Chicken - Tasty & Different!
When I'm being good & watching my diet like I should (not often enogh!), this has become one of my staples.
Ingredients:
Boneless, Skinless Chicken - I use the ready-cut breast tenders, as they cook quickly and are versatile enough to serve warmed with a veggie, or cold in a salad.
Olive Oil - Drizzle lightly to coat chicken pieces
Spices - applied to chicken in the following order:
- salt
- pepper
- garlic powder
* - * Use these sparingly:
- dried rosemary
- dried sage
- cinnamon
You can cook these several different ways:
- On top of the stove, in a non-stick pan over med. heat until lightly browned & cooked through
- Start on top of the stove in an oven-safe pan to brown, then finish in the oven (this is what I do when I'm cooking whole, boneless, skinless breasts)
- Grilled, either indoor or outdoor
The combination of spices is surprisingly yummy & smells wonderful when cooking, too!
My favorite meal with this chicken right now, since it's summer, is a nice big salad with assorted veggies, a couple chicken strips, and raspberry vinaigrette dressing - YUM!
