Answer 2

Hi you may want to try this.... in a deep skillet take 1 1/2 boneless breast cut into strips seasoned with salt and pepper, and dry powdered mustard. (season to taste) place about 2 table spoons of olive oil (virgin) just when the oil is hot enough place the chicken strips and fry until golden. Take the chicken out place aside. Take 1/2 red onion, cut into thin slices, 1/2 red pepper cut into thin strips, 1/3 cup of cilantro, and 2 garlic cloves,, mash the garlic with the flat side of the knife. In the same skillet with the remaining juices of the chicken and olive oil, add another 2 table spoons of olive oil and bring to a top heat, add the onion, pepper, garlic, and cilantro. stirring until cooked and sort of golden, add the chicken and stir together. After the chicken and other veggies are cooked , take 3-4 queen stuffed olives and slice them., and one half of a tomato slice and dice it. You can have this with plain white rice, or pasta, bow pasta is the best, Serve the pasta and chicken then dress it up with the olives slices and diced tomato's on top, a sprig of fresh cilantro does not hurt. Enjoy... This is a Puerto rican dish, usually served with yellow rice.

Answer 3

i take a boneless, skinless chicken breast, put thawed chicken in a baking dish.
mix together peanut butter, mustard, a bit of brown sugar or syrup and whatever other seasonings sound good (thyme, rosemary, parsley, etc - even a bit of grape jelly or strawberry jam - maybe catsup or bbq sauce - it just depends on my mood)
put the peanut butter mixture on top of the chicken breasts, you can do this either with a knife or by putting the mix and the chicken into a ziplock baggie and shaking it up - it just depends on how thick/thin you made your mix.
put 1-2 tablespoons of water in the bottom of the baking dish.
bake @ 375 until the chicken is cooked all the way through.
i like to serve it with penne pasta with just a little bit of alfredo sauce on the pasta.
It sounds kinda odd, but the peanut butter really does add good flavor and locks the moisture in the chicken.

another good way i like to fix chicken it to cut the boneless skinless breasts into 1 inch cubes (or smaller) and set aside
mix together 1 egg, add a teaspoon or a little more corn meal, stir, then add about 1 cup (or more) of crushed crunchy snacks (saltines, club crackers, cheese-its, honey grahams, fritos, other chips or best yet a mix).
put the chicken into a large bowl or ziplock baggie, add the egg/crackers mix and coat the chicken.
bake until done.
i often serve it w/instant rice to which i have added a scrambled egg, some corn, red sweet pepper, broccoli florets and a couple slices of cheese.

Answer 10

Toss some soy sauce, white wine, onion, and apple on it and pop it in the oven. I serve it with rice.

Marinade it in soy and garlic. Stir fry it with lots of veggies, such as snow peas, onion, bell pepper, squash, celery, carrot, maybe bamboo shoots or sliced water chessnuts, toss some bean sprouts on at the last minute, and serve on rice or pasta.

You can put just about any spices on it and it's nummy.

Brown it with onion, garlic, and bell pepper. Add Tomato sauce or canned tomatos and tomato paste; add oregano, bay, sage, thyme, and whatever and toss it on pasta.
