Bacon Garlic Chicken

boneless 6 oz. chicken breasts, with skin
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, minced
8 slices bacon
8 small sprigs fresh thyme
1/2 cup chicken stock or water
1 cup whipping cream
salt and pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Lightly salt and pepper the chicken breasts. Wrap two pieces of bacon around each chicken breast, forming an X in the middle of the skin side of each breast. Tuck two sprigs of thyme behind the bacon.

Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan that can go into the oven over medium high heat. Place the chicken breasts, bacon side down in the pan and cook until the bacon and chicken skin is browned. Turn over and cook until the other side is browned. Drain off the fat and add the stock or water, cream and garlic. Bring to a boil and place in the oven. Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes until the cream has thickened. Remove from the oven and season with salt and pepper. Let rest a few minutes before serving.

I cut mine up last night, threw them in with some veggies and some sweet and sour sauce and had a stir-fry. Served over rice. Quick, easy and yummy.

That Bacon Garlic Chicken sounds really good. I'm going to have to try that one. Thanks.

How about making fajitas? Or pound them flat and make chicken cordon bleu or chicken kiev or chicken parmigiana. Marinate them in a citrus marinade and cook them on the grill. Cut them into strips and make chicken fingers.

Trim and rinse them throw them in a bowl, pour 1/2 bottle ( i cook for a crowd so 1/2 a bottle easily does 2 lbs of chicken- adjust accordingly) Kraft "Special Collection" Caesar Italian with Oregano Dressing. Forget about them for an hour or the rest of the day.
Later, pan saute, bake or my favorite, grill them. MMMMMMMMmmmm

Save the other half of the bottle and have a salad!

I have never been a fan of any bottled salad dressing either on salad OR used in recipes. I always make my own but I have to admit, this one is great and really adds a fantastic flavor to plain old chicken. My DH is not really a fan of chicken to begin with so I am always trying something new to make him happy. He actually likes this one!

My favorites:
fajitas
chicken Romano
chicken Parm

My sister made us this dish last week.

Cook the chicken on top of the stove and cut up, like you would for chicken salad. (6 breasts)
Add a package of cream cheese and some milk, stir up.
You'll add milk to get a good consistency, but NOT runny.

Buy 2 packages of the refrigerated croissants. When you start to unroll them, leave 2 of the triangles together to form a square.
(So instead of getting 8, you'll get 4, hence why you need to buy 2 containers) Place a good amount of the chicken mixture in the middle and bring the 4 sides up and pinch closed.
Bake according to instructions on the croissant package.

My boys especially loved these!

Cut them into bite-sized pieces, cook them...then add them to fettuccine alfredo and toss with broccoli.

 

[my3kids]

Marinate in half soy souce, half italian dressing. Then grill.

 

[JessetheCowgirl]

Boil them and make chicken salad, chicken enchiladas, or chicken spaghetti.

We also do oven fried chicken alot with bisquik mix and paprika.

Or a stir fry with veggies and teriyaki sauce.

I came up with this marinade last week, and I've used it twice since. The chicken can be used in fajitas or just served on the plate plain. Be VERY careful not to overcook the chicken or it ruins the whole marinade:

For the small packs of chicken (about 1 - 1.5 lbs).

Juice of two limes (do not use bottled)
2 Tbsp. olive oil
2-3 Tbsp. of Grill Mates Montreal Chicken Seasoning

Put in zip lock bag and mix. Add chicken and smoosh it around until the chicken is entired covered. Marinate at least 2 hours. Grill or saute.

It's quite a zesty and refreshing marinade. The longer you marinade the more tender the chicken becomes.

These are all so good!!!

Keep 'em coming!

Easy Chicken Cordon Bleu (I can't spell - hopefully that's close!)

Pound them a little flat, put a piece of ham and a piece of swiss cheese on top and roll it up. Rub the outside with a mixture of mayonaise and dijon mustard and roll in seasoned bread crumbs. Drizzle with a bit of melted butter if desired. Bake until done.

Oh this to, First put a slice of tomatoe on top of the chicken breats and a slice of mozzarella cheese on top of the tomatoe and bake. Real easy too.

 

[shelbyjosh]

Marinate in Italian dressing with a little bit of BBQ sauce tossed in. It is quite yummy!!!

 

[minniepumpernickel]

I've marinated them in plain yogurt and a little orange jam, and they tasted really great. It sounds kind of weird, though.

FAJITAS!!!

I'm making chicken enchiladas with mine tonight. I boil the chicken while I sautee onion and green pepper. Then when the chicken is done, I take two forks and shred it. I add the chicken in with the onion and peppers then add seasoning (chili powder, salt, pepper, enchilada sauce). I roll them up and place them in a baking dish, pour enchilada sauce over them, and top with cheddar cheese.

They are GOOOOOD.

This is more a winter chicken dish -

1 can condensed cream of chicken soup mixed w/ some milk
pour over chicken
sprinkle with break crumbs
cover w/ foil with slits cut in it

Bake for an hour or so depending on whether the chicken was frozen or not.

Use any leftovers in a chicken salad or as "chicken ala king"

One of my families favorites

Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas

Cook and cube 1 1/2 lbs. chicken breast. Add 8-oz. package shredded cheddar or co-jack cheese, about 3/4 of a 16-oz. carton of sour cream, 4-6 chopped green onions, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly.

Spread some of the mixture down the center of a flour tortilla and roll up. Place seam side down in 9x13 glass pan. Continue until all mixture is gone. Pour a 16 oz. jar of salsa over the whole thing and bake about 35-40 minutes at 350 degrees. Serve with remainder of sour cream if desired. Serves 6.
