Categories     Dinner

Total Time 20 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (16 oz total )
freshly ground black pepper
2 large egg whites
2/3 cup seasoned whole wheat dry bread crumbs
olive oil spray (about 1 tbsp worth)
1 tbsp whipped butter
juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup reduced sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp capers
Sliced lemon (for serving)
Chopped fresh parsley leaves (for serving)

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into 4 cutlets, then place cutlets between 2 sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap and pound out to 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.
  • In a shallow plate, beat the egg whites and 1 teaspoon of water together.
  • Place the bread crumbs in another plate. Dip each chicken breast first in the egg, then bread crumbs.
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium to medium-low heat.
  • Spray a generous amount of olive oil spray on one side of the chicken, and lay it in the pan, oil side down.
  • Spray the top of the chicken generously to coat and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Set aside until you make the sauce.
  • For the sauce, clean the saute pan. Over medium heat, melt butter, add the lemon juice, wine, chicken broth and the reserved lemon halves, salt, and pepper.
  • Boil over high heat until reduced in half, about 2 minutes.
  • Discard the lemon halves, add the capers and serve one chicken cutlet on each plate.
  • Spoon on the sauce and serve with a slice of lemon and a sprinkling of fresh parsley.

Categories     Dinner

Total Time 40 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

16 oz boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 red bell pepper (cut into strips)
1 green or poblano pepper (cut into strips)
1 medium onion (cut into strips)
3 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
pinch ancho or Mexican chili powder (  to taste)
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp olive oil
8 reduced-carb whole wheat flour tortillas (or corn tortillas for gf)
1/2 cup reduced fat shredded Mexican cheese
reduced fat sour cream (optional)
guacamole (optional)

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken with lime juice, and season with chile powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cumin.
  • Season vegetables with salt and pepper and toss with olive oil.
  • To grill the onions and peppers outside on the grill, use a cast iron skillet and grill covered over medium heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Or, to cook them indoors, you can use a large skillet on the stove over medium heat for 16 to 18 minutes, covered until the onions and peppers are soft.
  • Heat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan over medium heat; grill chicken until cooked through, about 8 minutes on each side.
  • Transfer to a cutting board when done and cut into strips. Once cooked, combine with the peppers and onions.
  • Serve immediately with warmed tortillas, cheese and toppings.
