I'm BORED with everyday chicken. Anyone have any recipes for something unique?

Question

I enjoy cooking and difficult recipe is fine. I just make the same things all the time. I wanted to make something with chicken for dinner, but I don't want the same old thing.

Maybe something ethnic??

Answer 1

Chicken Kiev

Ingredients:
3 tablespoons reduced-fat margarine, softened
1 tablespoon snipped fresh parsley
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
6 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups Cornflakes
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup skim milk
Mix margarine, parsley and garlic powder and shape into a rectangle (3 x 2 inches). Cover and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes. Remove excess fat from chicken and flatten each to 1/4-inch thickness between waxed paper. Heat oven to 425 degrees. Cut margarine into 6 pieces and place 1 piece on each chicken breast. Fold sides of chicken breasts over margarine and secure with wooden toothpicks.

Mix Cornflakes, parsley and paprika. Dip chicken into milk and then evenly coat with Cornflake mixture. Place chicken breasts seam side down on a baking dish that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake uncovered about 35 minutes or until chicken is done.

Answer 2

This is very simple but is delicious especially if you are short on ingredients

Brown your chicken pieces in a little bit of oil in a frying pan. Place the chicken in a baking dish. Wash 5 medium potatoes and cut in half lengthwise. Place in dish with chicken. Lay 3 or four slices of onion over the potatoes and chicken. Pour one 8 ounce can of tomato sauce over the chicken and potatoes, season with pepper and a little salt. Take the tomato sauce can and fill it 3/4 of the way with water to rinse out the can and then use this to get all the brown bits from the frying pan over medium heat. Pour this over the chicken, cover tightly with foil and bake at 350 for 45 minutes to 1 hour. My kids love this and it is easy and makes little mess to clean up.

 1/4 cup chopped green onion
 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1/8 teaspoon salt
 1/8 teaspoon pepper
 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
 4 whole boneless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/4-inch thickness and frozen for 15-20 minutes for ease in handling
 4 slices (1 ounce each) Swiss Cheese

 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
 1/8 teaspoon salt
 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Preheat oven to 375ºF. In small mixing bowl combine green onion, parsley flakes, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Set aside. Place one piece of cheese in center of each chicken breast. Top with one-fourth of onion mixture. Starting at narrow edge, roll each breast tightly, tucking in sides to enclose cheese and onion mixture. Dredge with flour. In small bowl combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Dip each rolled breast in beaten egg, then in crumb mixture to coat. Spray a 9 x 9 x 2-inch pan with Crisco No Stick Cooking Spray. Generously spray each of coated breasts with Crisco No Stick Cooking Spray and arrange in pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown.

Answer 5

Hmmm... I like to take a chicken breast and pound it so it is thinner, and then I put aspargus, bacon, and cheese in the middle and wrap the chicken around it. I hold it in place with some twine or toothpicks and then you just broil it in the over. Very tasty...
