Mike's Stuffed Chicken Breasts

This is a fun recipe for the grill. My wife, family and friends all love it. I made this up when I bought my grill and felt like experimenting. Normally I have to make a recipe five or six times to get it just right; this is the only recipe I've invented and gotten perfect the first time.

I make enough to fill an 18" diameter grill; this usually works out to 16 meals. Leftovers are great sliced for sandwiches, but let them warm up, or toast them. The flavor hides when it's cold.

8 boneless skinless split chicken breasts
1/4 cup fresh parsley or spinach, diced
1/4 cup onion, finely diced
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
4 cloves garlic, finely diced
2 tablespoons bell pepper, diced (orange ones are prettiest in this)
1/2 tablespoon basil
1/2 tablespoon oregano
1 capful lemon juice (1/2 tablespoon?)
2 teaspoons stone ground mustard
2 tablespoons sweet barbeque sauce
1/2 cup Asiago cheese (if you don't know it, it's like a sharp Parmasean)
Lemon pepper seasoning

Dice up the vegetables, shred the cheese, mix in all other ingredients except the chicken and the lemon pepper.

Cut a pocket in each breast, slicing along one side. Stuff the breasts, then seal them with 4" skewers. I found small skewers and string sold as "turkey laces" in my grocery store, and threw away the string.

Sprinkle the outsides of the chicken with the lemon pepper, then toss on a medium-high grill. I cook for 8 minutes, turn, and cook 8 more. The stuffing keeps the insides moist while the outside crisps up.

Grand daughters chicken recipe:
Heat oven to 350*
6 chicken breat halves
1 or 2 cans of of diced tomatoes - Italian ( I use Red Gold)
I pkg of Italian dressing made acording to directions
box of angel hair pasta
Make salad dressing set aside. Arange chicken, cut into bit size pieces, in a 9 by what ever oven dish. Pour dressing overchicken cook covered for 15 to 20 minutes. Add tomatoes and return to over for another 15 to 20 minutes. Serve with hot bread and a salad and enjoy. It's easy great tasting and you can freeze any left overs... if you have any. I fix enough to eat and freeze for several meals.

Have you checked out epicurious.com? I don't do OAMC, but I do like to make double batches and freeze the extra. There are tons of great chicken recipes on that site!

Hi,

Chicken Stew

Chicken - deboned and defatted bite sized (skinless breasts)
Potatos - boiled and cut into bites
Mixed vegtables - maybe frozen maybe not
Cream of something soup - mushroom, broccoli, onion
Milk or water for thinning

Pretty much just mix together and heat until the chicken cooks all the way. I like to boil my potatos first or they can make things pretty starchy. Cream of Mushroom is probably the most common that I use but other cream soups make for tasty variations. Throw in some mushrooms if that sound good to you. Thin it with milk or water until it seems right for you... to thin just call it soup! Adjust quantities to meet your needs. Just what vegtables you use is up to your tastes, I use corn, peas, carrots, and onions.

Makes a white stew. Serve with biscuits and black tea. Garnish with course ground pepper and salt to taste.

down on the farm,
michael

I also prepare this using rabbit meat.

Check out my site below since it offers several recipes that call for chicken.

Not a chicken recipe but since you mentioned trying meat loaf... here is a link to the best recipe for meat loaf I have ever had.

Here are two of my favorites. I don't go by a recipe with them, so I will try to do the best I can.

Chicken Spectacular-Mix all of the following together. 2 boxes of cooked wild rice, 4 o 5 boiled, deboned, and shredded chicken breasts, 2 cans of drained french style greenbeans, 1 can drained sliced water chestnuts, 1 c. chopped onion, 1 jar drained mushrooms, 1 to 2 cans of cream of celery, 1 c. mayonnaise, salt and pepper. I have used low fat soup and mayo, and it is still good. Place in a casserole dish and bake until warm throughout, or freeze.

Rotel Chicken-I know everyone probably knows this recipe, but just in case, here goes. Boil, debone, and shred 5-6 chicken breasts. Cool and scrape fat off the top of the broth. Bring broth back to boil, and boil 1 large package of spaghetti noodles until done (not too done). Drain the noodles, and I save a little of the broth. Put the noodles back in the pot on medium low and add about 3/4 of a large block of Velveeta (cut in pieces) 2 cans of drained rotel tomatoes, 1 can drained sliced mushrooms, 1 to 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, and the shredded chicken. Stir all together until cheese is melted. If it is too thick, add a little broth. This is great to freeze. Sometimes I add a can of english peas.

I know you were looking for more low cal, but a little serving of these with a fresh green salad, and some fruit is all you need.

Alison, this sounds very good and easy. Thanks, I'll definitely try it, it sounds like a combination of flavors that we will like!
