Q: Anyone got any low fat chicken recipes?


A: Garlic chicken is always a hit at my house and is super easy to prepare. Nothing to measure just mix up what you need to prepare this dish. We prefer boneless skinless chicken breasts. You can cut them into chunks or strips or leave them whole, that is up to you and what your preferences are. Breading for chicken: You can use bread crumbs if you wish, I prefer to use croutons that have been crushed in the food processer. Mix into your crumbs about 1/4 or so of parmesean cheese and parsley dried or fresh if you want. (I have also used other seasonings so its whatever you like) 1 stick of butter and 1/2 cup olive oil (or all olive oil if you want) and 5+ minced garlic (we use tons as we all love garlic). heat this in the microwave to fuse the garlic flavor into the butter/oil. After the garlic butter/oil has cooled, dip your chicken into it and then into your crumbs coating them well. Place them on a greased baking sheet and cook in your oven at 350 until done. About 30 min for whole breasts 20 for strips or chunks. As I said this is a super easy and super versital recipe. I have used this for parmeasan chicken/ I have added spices and made it a "hot chicken" recipe. so play around and have fun.

Q: Anyone know any low-fat chicken recipes that make just enough food for 4-5 people?
My dad wants me to figure something out for dinner before my family gets home and im trying to loose weight and eat healthier. But my dad hates it when i stare at fat content and hates the taste of low-fat food. so does anyone have a recipe for low-fat chicken that still tastes full of fat. please no comments about what i could do . please just recipes or websites that have specific recipes i could go to look at. Please don't just name websites i could go to because i dont have the time to look at all of the recipes because my dad is going to be home soon and i need ideas.

A: This is really easy and tasty. When you are breading the chicken, dip in seasoned flour first, then the yogurt, then corn flakes. Make sure you season the flour with garlic, and any other spice you like...basil, parsley, salt, pepper, onion powder etc. If you don't have yogurt, use egg. Don't tell dad what's in it, he'll never know its low fat. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Lowfat-Baked-Chicken/Detail.aspx

Q: need a low fat chicken or flounder recipe?
ok my bf has a bad gallbladder and he can only eat low fat food i have chicken breasts,flounder,rice,broccoli any good tasting ways to make a good low fat meal with this stuff?

A: My partner likes it when I make him cherry glazed chicken breasts, smashed potatoes or rice and a veggie. Cherry glazed chicken breasts: 1 can cherry pie filling 4-6 boneless chicken breasts Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Place the chicken breasts in a glass baking pan that has been sprayed with a non-stick cooking spray like Pam. Spoon just enough of the cherry pie filling over the chicken to cover lightly. Place pan into oven and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes spreading more of the pie filling over the chicken every 15 minutes. This is very easy and you get a nice moist chicken breast. This also works well for Cornish game hens and pork chops. SAC

Q: I need a low fat recipe for Chicken Tikka Massala?
Help!

A: I am a former chef and make it once and while, for a lower calorie version, use lighter yougart, I use 2% unflavoured, roast the chicken in the oven, and for the sauce use low sodium tomatos sauce, thicken it with a bit of cornstarch, then add the yougart at the end, this will prevent splitting. I marinate the chicken overnight, process the onions/garlic/ginger in the food processor, saute it in oil, add the masala spices, cook it for a few minutes, then add the stock and tomato puree, cook it for 10-15 minutes, then use a cornstarch slurry to thicken up, add the chicken and the yougart stir together. Serve with a nice plain basmati or a pilaw with peas and a few raisins or a naan is fine too.
