Healthy Souvlakia With Tzatziki

Most souvlakia marinade calls for a fair bit of oil while this one calls for very little. Even the Tzatziki sauce uses low fat options but neither one compromises on taste. I made a large batch of this once and brought it to my sister’s place for a BYOM BBQ (bring your own meat - they provided a variety of side dishes). I cooked the entire dozen chicken breasts up hoping to have leftovers for lunches that week. Not a single piece was remaining and in all honesty, I can’t remember my godson eating as much meat as he did with this recipe! If you use fresh chicken breasts, once the chicken is coated, skew it onto skewers and it can be frozen for future use. — posted by Kim A. Heaphy

Chicken Satay Salad

Now I am not a big salad fan, especially during the Ontario cold winters but this is a salad that I can eat year round. Warm marinaded chicken or shrimp served over a bed of vermicelli, greens and shredded vegetables that has been lightly drizzed with or tossed with a flavourful dressing. This recipe is great when served with either the Spicy Sweet-And-Sour Dipping Sauce (Recipe #414410) or Kim’s Satay Sauce (Recipe #414414). Also, use organic carrots for better flavour! — posted by Kim A. Heaphy

Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup

I was looking for a recipe that is fast and easy and would give me some soup for a few days. Good thing I had this during the Feb 2010 Blizzard in the Northeast — posted by Mick007

Velvet Chicken

This poached chicken is velvety soft and tender. The cooking broth is absolutely delicious and can be saved to boil ramen or make rice. Adapted from a recipe at Serious Eats. http://bit.ly/cdXZzy — posted by DrGaellon

Red Wine Chicken With Peppers and Olives (Oamc)

This chicken dish is perfect for making ahead and freezing; it requires minimal preparation and can just be popped into the oven. Freeze it for up to 3 months. Defrost thoroughly at room temperature, then transfer to a roasting tin and cover with foil. Reheat at 350F for 30 minutes, until piping hot. Uncover for the final 5 minutes of cooking. — posted by English_Rose
