Healthy Alterations: #fixthedish
- Cook tomatoes on low for a bit and add on top of chicken
- Adds something sweet and includes a nice serving of fruit
- Instead of adding butter and cream to mashed potatoes, add ground Mustard
- Gives a nice sweetness like butter, but allows to use half as much!
- Try Breading with egg whites instead of the whole egg
- Egg whites provide all the amino acids you need for your body w/ less calories
Lemon Chicken
Chicken Breast
Chicken Broth
Lemon Juice
Basil, Garlic, Olive Oil
Wet Marinate the chicken ahead of time

Olive Oil is used because a wet marinade is more effective
Set aside in plastic bag fora day or so before cooking

Cook Chicken with lemon slices and 3 tbsp of Chicken Broth

Squeeze extra lemon juice after if you'd like
3 Good Choices:- Cook the chicken in just lemon and extra virgin olive oil. These are healthier and more beneficial for you, and are fewer calorie than a processed oil.
- Consider cooking with free range chicken breast
- Free range animals are not fed any chemicals which could be harmful to humans, and they aren't injected with any hormones or antibiotics. This is a great, and healthier choice overall
- Chop up the chicken and prepare a salad to eat with the chicken! This way you have the benefit of eating vegetables, and whatever else you would want to add to the salad.
I assure you that my chicken tenders are not necessarily unhealthy, although they are a comfort food. But any cook would feel much better serving these to kids (or anyone for that matter) than a frozen packaged chicken nugget or from a fast food source. I'm a kid, and they're simple enough to make for me. I make them every other week to put a smile on my younger sister's face and she loves them more than any brand out there. Give them a try, you won't regret it. And maybe try some refreshing lemon chicken the next day with a salad if you feel like something lighter after!
