I need an easy chicken breast recipe that isn't chicken parm!?

Anyone? Something basic but yummy.


ThanksI need an easy chicken breast recipe that isn't chicken parm!?
Here is a good one that I often make for my family. Four chicken breast halves rinsed and slightly dried sprinkle with garlic salt, lemon pepper and some cayenne (optional) on both sides. In a roasting pan add 2 cut up carrots, 4 potatoes and 1 onion, place chicken on top of the vegetables and add water to cover the vegetables. Now is when you can add whatever you want, cream of chicken soup, bouillon cubes, mushroom soup or nothing at all. Bake in a 350 oven until chicken is done and vegetables ar fork tender. I have also made this without the potatoes, and served over rice. It is satisfying and filling. I often add different vegetables like turnips, cabbage, broccoli, sweet potatoes, tomatoes whatever is in season. Good cooking to you.I need an easy chicken breast recipe that isn't chicken parm!?

THats what i'm making for dinner tonight!
This is just something I have worked up on my own, and it is wonderful.





Put olive oil in a pan on medium, put in some chopped garlic and chopped rosemary (or you can do basil). I like for the herbs to be fresh, but if you can't it might be ok.





Let that simmer for a minute to let the herbs get in good with the oil. Then put your chicken breast in. Let the chicken cook until pretty much done...make sure you flip and watch it. When it looks about done put in some white wine that covers about half way up the chicken's sides. Then cover for a few minutes.





The chicken will be moist and yummy and the olive oil and white wine with the herbs make a great sauce to go over the chicken with rice.





Have fun.
