Dry-Rub Chicken with Honey Barbecue Sauce

by Pam on July 9, 2013

This was a quick and easy Cooking Light^[1] recipe that we all enjoyed. I adapted the dry-rub to work with what I had on hand and it turned out super flavorful. I liked the sauce – it was simple and delicious. I served this chicken with the Garlic-Parmesan Grilled Corn on the Cob^[2] and the Sautéed Garlicky Kale with Onions, Pine Nuts, and Craisins^[3] for a tasty and healthy meal.

Cut each chicken breast in half. Season both sides of the chicken pieces with the paprika, steak (or chicken) seasoning, garlic powder, sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Place on a plate then cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for a few hours. Remove the chicken from the refrigerator 20 minutes prior to cooking.

Preheating the oven to 375 degrees.

Prepare the sauce by combining the ketchup, lemon juice, cider vinegar, honey, minced garlic, sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste, together in a small skillet. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium low heat; cook for 15 minutes, stirring often.

Heat an ovenproof skillet that has been coated in cooking spray over medium high heat. Place the chicken into the hot skillet and cook for 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip the chicken over and slather evenly with the barbecue sauce then place into the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Let the chicken rest for 3-5 minutes prior to serving. Serve with extra sauce if desired. Enjoy.

Roasted Pepper, Spinach, and Sharp Cheddar Stuffed Chicken Breast

by Pam on June 17, 2013

I craving chicken for dinner and was inspired by a recipe I found on Skinnytaste.com^[1] that looked great. I adapted the recipe to use what I had on hand. I found some roasted red bell pepper, fresh baby spinach, and sharp cheddar in the fridge. I grabbed some Italian panko from the refrigerator along with some olive oil and a lemon. The chicken was easy to make, smelled great while it baked, and was a big hit with all my husband and I and our kids thought it was tasty except for the roasted bell pepper.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Coat a baking dish with cooking spray. (Side Note: I used the convection bake setting on my oven but regular will work however you may need to broil the chicken for a few seconds at the end of baking to get a golden color on your breading – watch carefully).

Slice each chicken breast in half lengthwise. Place all four pieces of chicken on a cutting board then cover with wax paper. Pound the chicken with a meat mallet until 1/4 inch thick. Season the pieces of chicken with sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and garlic powder, to taste. Place some shredded cheese down the center followed by roasted bell pepper, and two spinach leaves on each piece. Carefully roll each piece of chicken as tightly as possible and place seam side down.

Place the breadcrumbs on a plate. Combine the lemon juice, olive oil, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste in a small bowl; mix until well combined.

Dip the chicken in the lemon oil mixture followed by the breadcrumbs to coat evenly then place in the baking dish seam side down. Coat each chicken roll with cooking spray.

Place into the oven and bake 25-30 minutes. Let the meat rest for a couple of minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy.
