I need more variety in my suppers - anyone have any good, easy chicken recipes?

Question

I make fried chicken, chicken and wild rice hot dish, and that's about it. The person I cook for can't eat onions or green peppers.

Answer 1

Easy chicken in wine sauce...
You'll need:
*thinly pounded chicken strips or breasts (1/2 to 3/4 lb.)
*flour (seasoned with salt and any herbs you like)
*1 Tbs. of butter
*2 Tbs. of olive oil
*1Tbs. minced garlic (optional)
*1/2 cup of wine and 1/2 water; adjust as you like as long as the liquid comes to 1 c.
*a couple handfuls of sliced mushrooms and fresh spinach (optional)

Just roll your pieces of chicken in flour that has a bit of salt and herbs blended in. You don't have to coat with egg or anything else before flouring. (I keep it really simple sometimes.)
Take 1 Tbs. of unsalted butter, not margarine, and 2 Tbs. of olive oil.
Brown both sides of your chicken at med/hi heat and remove from pan.
If you'd like, take 1 tsp. of minced garlic and brown. Next add your wine and water. (I like to use 1/4 c. marsala and 1/4 of whatever's in my fridge but any light wine will do if you'd like a less heavy taste.)
Replace the chicken in pan and let simmer. This will thicken and make a lovely sauce.
Optional: I take sliced mushrooms and fresh spinach and spread a thin layer on top of the chicken while it is simmering and cover. You'll want to check the chicken as it starts to thicken to make sure it isn't scorched at the bottom. Simmering for about 10 min. is fine.
Serve with buttered noodles... YUM!

Enjoy,
Mon :-)

Answer 3

Here's 2 really simple ways--

Add either cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup to it and bake.

or

my favorite is to marinate them by soaking the chicken in lemon juice, olive oil, and italian seasoning for a few hours, then grilling them.

Both are great:)
