Fave recipes using boneless skinless chicken breast
So I always have boneless skinless chicken breast on hand. I tend to default to the same few recipes with it so I'm looking for some variety. What are your family faves with chicken breast?

Re: Fave recipes using boneless skinless chicken breast
Nugget size pieces, marinade in diced shallots, lemon juice, honey, S&P. Cook on the stovetop with plenty of oil, and be sure the scrape up any crunchy shallot bits to top the chicken. I like parsley on top, but my kids don't. This is really good on an arugula salad if you have leftovers.

Re: Fave recipes using boneless skinless chicken breast
Chicken soup with rice.
I generally sate onions and garlic in my instant pot, then toss in rice, brith and a frozen chicken breast. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Chicken with pesto! We do dairy-free over here. Pesto is delicious!

Re: Fave recipes using boneless skinless chicken breast
Balsamic rosemary chicken is one favorite here, cut into bite size pieces and brown in olive oil. Mix together balsamic vinegar and olive oil with garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary and add it to the chicken. Cook until done. Or a similar version of that in the sous vide is very good!
Last night for dinner I marinated chicken breasts in italian dressing and seared them on medium high then stuck them in the oven in a super easy lemon butter sauce. That was no trouble and very quick and easy and super good. I also like them in marinara, when they get all fall apart good and I eat it with spaghetti squash.

Re: Fave recipes using boneless skinless chicken breast
I try to keep a bag of coleslaw cabbage on hand. I cube the breast and stir fry it and throw the cabbage on top of the chicken after browning and we top it with some maple syrup and a little salt (my husband is allergic to most things, so we keep the ingredients very simple) You could throw broccoli and green onions in also and matchstick carrots. Serve over rice.
This is our quick convenience go to meal. |

Thai Coconut Chicken Curry I always keep cans of coconut milk on hand!
The recipe looks like a lot of ingredients, but they're mostly spices you probably have anyway. I made this tonight and DD (2 years old) ate THREE servings of chicken, and we have no leftovers

Re: Fave recipes using boneless skinless chicken breast
Chili lime chicken in the crockpot:
3 - 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts 3 tablespoons of lime juice 1 tablespoon of chili powder Put ingredients in crockpot in order listed. Cook on high 3 - 4 hours or on low for 5 - 7. Shred and add to taco shells or tortillas with toppings. Ridiculously easy and the kids fight over the leftovers. |

Re: Fave recipes using boneless skinless chicken breast
Thanks for all the recipes! Keep them coming!
I made a new one the other day that the kids loved so it will be on our rotation. Bunus that it's SUPER easy. Recipe here: https://www.365daysofcrockpot.com/in...reamy-chicken/ I used just a variety of italien dried herbs I had on hand rather than the "packet". And I make my own "cream of...." soups. Served over rice.
