Okay, so I'm no "Pioneer Woman" or anything but I wanted to share a really yummy quick & easy recipe with you guys. It's called Mexican Chicken and it's low fat, low carb, and it has lots of protein. Here's a pic of the after product:
Ingredients:
2-4 chicken breasts (depends on how many people are eating; I used 2 b/c it was just me & Lindsey)
1 packet of taco seasoning (you can use the kind for chicken or the kind that's low sodium)
Black Beans - 1 can
4 Tbs of Butter (you can Margarine or Smart Balance or whatever)
1 Avocado
2-4 slices of Pepper Jack Cheese
Directions:
Cut chicken breasts into cubes. Heat butter in non-stick skillet until completely melted and add taco seasoning at that point kind of making a paste. Stir in chicken and coat each piece evenly. Cook uncovered on med heat stirring occasionally. I added garlic salt and cayenne pepper to mine for a little spice. While chicken is cooking cook beans and slice up avocado. Once beans are bubbling and chicken is cooked on all sides (I usually cook mine for about 10-15 min)...take beans and pour onto plate and then top w/chicken and then lay a few slices of pepper jack cheese ontop of the chicken and let that sit for a few seconds and melt and then top w/avocado or jalapenos or whatever else you might want to add (lettuce, tomatoes, etc) and ENJOY!
