Honey Garlic Drumsticks
Chicken DrumSticks
Honey Garlic Sauce
Place drumsticks on pan sprayed with cooking spray.
Brush with Honey Garlic Sauce.
Bake at 350F for 40 minutes, brushing with additional sauce every 10 minutes.
TIPS: If I did this again I would remove the skin before cooking.
RESULTS: Thumbs down by the adults, hubby won't try it. I eat one and am grossed out. The kiddo loves them, she has 3. I froze the leftovers for her.

Broccoli & Cheese stuffed Chicken Breasts
Chicken Breasts (cut thin)
Broccoli (I used frozen - slightly thawed)
Marble Cheddar
Bread crumbs & seasoning (I used Italian mix, garlic, salt & pepper)
Italian Dressing
Dip chicken breasts in Italian dressing and coat in seasoned bread crumbs.
Place in glass dish coated with cooking spray.
Place some cheese & broccoli in the centre and roll with the ends tucked under.
Bake on convection at 400 for about 30 minutes.
TIPS: I made a few pieces without the cheese for the hubby so I marked the ones that had cheese in them with a little piece of cheese on top. I also put the extra broccoli in the pan and baked it as well.
RESULTS: Enjoyed by all. The kido asked that it be separated out so the chicken was separate from the filling.

Quick & Easy BBQ Chicken & Corn
This one is a bit simplistic but it works really well.
Chicken Breasts
BBQ Sauce (I used bullseye)
Corn on the cob
Chicken:
Coat chicken in sauce and let sit in frige for minimum of 15 minutes.
BBQ (baste with extra sauce while cooking)and enjoy.
Corn:
Clean & rinse corn cobs. Wrap in tin foil and place on the BBQ turning often.
TIPS: Use a temputure fork for the chicken. It gets dry if overcooked.
RESULTS: A success. No leftovers.

Last night I made this house favourite.
Chicken breasts (boneless skinless)
Bread crumbs
Seasoning (garlic powder, salt & pepper)
Honey Garlic sauce (from VH)
Rice
Spray glass bakeware with cooking spray
Mix Breadcrumbs withe seasoning to taste in freezer bag
Rinse each chicken breast
Coat withe seasoned breadcrumbs shake & bake style
Place in glass bakeware and cook at 400 for 25 minutes (on convection if you have it)
Prepare rice.
At 20 or so minutes pour honey garlic sauce over chicken and bake remaining 5 minutes or until cooked thoroughly.
Serve over rice with extra sauce from the pan drizzled over top.
TIPS: This is also good frozen and reheated without the rice.
RESULTS: A family favorite as always.

Slow Cooker Honey-Lemon Chicken with Potatoes
Last week I made this. It was a Racheal Ray recipe slightly revised.
http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/recipes/slow-cooker-meal-honey-lemon-chicken-potatoes/
Ingredients
2 tablespoons Olive oil (original recipe calls for EVOO)
Large package (about 5) Chicken breasts (original recipe is for 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs)
Salt and ground black pepper
Cut up white potatoes (original recipe is for 1 1/2 pounds baby potatoes)
1 small onion, chopped
Equivlent of 2 to 3 cloves garlic the jar kind (recipe calls for finely chopped or grated)
Italian seasoning mix which included thyme (original recipe- 4 to 5 sprigs thyme, leaves picked and chopped)
1 lemons, thinly sliced (called for 2)
1/4 cup honey
3 cups of chicken stock (original recipe called for 1/4 cup chicken stock or water)
In a skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and brown on both sides.
Scatter the potatoes, onion, garlic, thyme and lemon slices in the bowl of a crock pot. Season with salt and pepper. Lay the browned chicken over the veggies and drizzle with honey. Add stock, cover and cook, undisturbed, for 4 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low.
I omitted this last part but you can serve each portion topped with a combination of lemon zest, parsley, toasted nuts and balsamic drizzle.
TIPS: Served with extra "juice" from the crock pot on top. This would have been better with more lemon and using the small potatoes called for in the original recipe. I froze the leftovers in the sauce and it tasted great reheated.
RESULTS: Enjoyed by all.

Chicken Quesadillas
Last night I did another quick and easy dinner. Chicken Quesadillas. They are also easy to customize for picky eaters.
Soft taco shells
Cooked chicken pieces (I used some leftover chicken that had been cooked in teriaki sauce for tacos)
Shredded Cheese
Veggies - Cucumber, Red Pepper & Tomato
Salsa (I used Salsa on the adult ones and pizza sauce on the kiddos)
Spread sauce on one side of taco shell. Add veggies, chicken and cheese and fold over.
Fry in a bit of cooking spray until lightly toasted. Cut in half or quarters and serve.
TIPS: Served with extra salsa/pizza sauce or sour cream. Make sure to let it cool a bit for kids as the fillings get very hot.
RESULTS: A success. Enjoyed by everyone.

Stuffing Chicken
This is one of my favorite quick recipes.
Chicken breast
Bread crumbs
Seasoning - garlic, salt & pepper
Box of stuffing (I like the turkey kind with cranberries)
Margarine (for the stuffing)
Mix stuffing, water & margarine according to package directions in a square glass bake ware.
Let sit covered (I used a plate)while you prepare the chicken.
Place bread crumbs and seasoning to taste in a large freezer bag.
Rinse chicken with water.
Place chicken in freezer bag and shake.
Place chicken on top of stuffing.
Bake on convection at 375 for about 25 minutes.
TIPS: I usually make the stuffing in the microwave first but this time I just mixed it without cooking it and it was a lot nicer (more moist). I sometimes do this chicken Italian style too - marinate in Italian dressing before coating in bread crumbs and add Italian seasoning to the breadcrumbs.
RESULTS: No leftovers. A success on the chicken. The kiddo wouldn't eat the stuffing which isn't unusual.

Rosemary Chicken Breast
For dinner tonight I decided to try and break the husbands dislike of poultry in the crock pot. I decided to try cooking on high for a shorter period with the thought it might be a bit less dry. I roughly adapted a fellow bloggers recipe for Rosemary Chicken (original here: http://thesinglemomscookbook.blogspot.com/) to work for chicken breast in the crock pot.
3 Chicken Breast
Minced Garlic (in a jar)
Salt & Pepper
Rosemary
3 tbs Margarine (I didn't have butter)
Dried and placed chicken breast in crock pot. Sprinkled both sides with salt & pepper, rosemary and garlic. Put three heaping tablespoons of margarine in the middle and set in the crock pot on high for 2.5 hours.
TIPS: I would add some extra margerine next time to get extra gravy for the chicken.
RESULTS: Thumbs up. The Kido gobbled dinner up and asked for extra "gravy" for her chicken.
