Need GOOD Chicken recipe's!!?

Hi, i need some good chicken recipes! We dont eat anything but Chicken and Turkey so the taste is getting a little old! I need some spicy or tangy recipes! We only eat boneless skinless chicken breast and nothing fried, any ideas? Thanks a bunch!Need GOOD Chicken recipe's!!?
Baked Chicken #1





Marinate your chicken in Italian dressing for about 1 hour then roll in Italian style bread crumbs that have Parmesan and Romano cheeses mixed in - bake at 375 degrees F for 45 minutes to 1 hour depending upon how thick/big they are. Serve with roasted potatoes, a veggie or salad.





Baked Chicken #2





1 box of stuffing mix like Stove Top


4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts


1 can condensed Cream of Mushroom or Cream of Chicken soup - I like Campbell's but any brand will work


1/2 soup can of milk


1/4 cup bread crumbs - I like Italian style


1 cup shredded cheddar cheese





Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a small bowl, mix the can of soup and milk; set aside. Make stuffing mix according to package directions and spread into a greased 13x9 in baking pan. Place chicken pieces over the stuffing. Cover with the soup mixture. Sprinkle the shredded cheese and bread crumbs over the top of the chicken and bake for 45 minutes to one hour depending upon how thick you chicken pieces are. Serve with a green salad.





Prepared macaroni and cheese, rice or rice pilaf can be substituted for the stuffing.





Baked Chicken #3





4-6 boneless chicken breasts


1 can cherry pie filling





Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and spray a baking pan with Pam or other non-stick spray. Arrange chicken on pan and spoon on 1/2 cherry pie filling. Bake for 30 minutes then spoon or brush on remaining pie filling and cook for another 30 minutes or until the meat is done. Serve with white rice, rice pilaf, roasted or mashed potatoes, a steamed veggie and a salad.

Stove Top BBQ'd Chicken





Melt a little butter in a big heavy frying pan, add some sliced onion and cook until tender. Put you chicken breasts in the frying pan and brown on both sides. Cover with your favorite BBQ sauce, cover the pan and simmer until the chicken is tender. Serve with rice, potato salad or mashed potatoes and a veggie.

I love to cook with fruit and chicken - it is such a great combination of flavors.





Here is one way that I do mine: In a bowl, combine 1 cup sliced apples with a tablespoon of honey, teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, 3 tablespoons of sugar - you can use either white or brown sugar - and 1/2 cup apple juice or cider - whichever you prefer and mix to combine; let sit while you brown your chicken pieces in some butter in a heavy pan; pour apple mixture over your chicken, bring to a boil, cover and then simmer until chicken is tender. You can substitute peaches - canned or fresh - for the apples or use canned pie apples if you do not have fresh. Also, canned cherry pie filling tastes great as a sauce, too.
