Creative Ideas For Chicken Plates

By Laura Cales

One of our favorite meats is Chicken. It is incredibly versatile, very lean and incredibly tasty.

When starting a new diet, chicken is the meat of choice. You can do so much with it and it provides us with the valuable protein that we need.

If you overcook a Chicken, which many tend to do, it can take on a rather dry consistency, especially if you are eating in as part of a salad etc. If you are getting bored with Chicken, simply try some different recipes to create some great tasting dishes.

Don't make the mistake of not making the effort to experiment, so many of us have ended up loathing a food that was once a firm favorite. By leaving out Chicken and eating other meats instead is increasing your calorie and fat intake which is never a good idea.

I've some healthy suggestions here for different ways to incorporate chicken into some delicious dishes. Some you may have tried before, and if you haven't already, give them a go! You can't beat a dish that is both delicious and healthy.

A favorite dish in my house is chicken with a honey and orange sauce. Add extras to the sauce if you wish, such as almonds or raisins. This is a delicious meal that is sweet yet has a very low fat content. Give your family a treat by making this for them.

Bring a boring chicken salad to life by adding a low fat dressing and tarragon to create a tasty and satisfying dish. Low fat varieties of soured cream or mayonnaise can give this dish richness while still keeping it healthy.

If you, like me, are a fan of Asian cuisine, why not try your chicken with lime and coconut? Throw in some vegetables to if you want. Get out your wok and try some of the dishes that you normally buy as take out. Chicken really should never get boring. - 31875
