Traditionally this is the season when a lot of us start thinking about healthy eating and healthier habits. We join gyms, try to get out and exercise, and try to eat healthier foods. Often eating a balance, more sensible diet sounds good on paper but can be awfully hard to follow-through on in our daily lives. And some of the diets outlined can seem pretty bland and dull. Most recommend whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, and lean meat like poultry.
Chicken is very versatile meat that can be combined with so many dishes and cooked in so many ways that it rarely gets boring. Chicken can be sauted, baked, stir-fried, broiled, barbecued - the possibilities are endless. The wonderful thing about chicken is that it absorbs any of the many flavors and spices you choose to produce great tasting dishes.
Another plus about chicken is that is cooks quite quickly, especially if you choose to make chicken cutlets. It's pretty easy to make a nice family dinner even after a busy day with a few simple foods. Cover the amount of cutlets you need in a tasty marinade or some herbs and lemon and bake for about 20 minutes. Serve them with a side of rice and some mixed vegetables and you've got a great tasting, satisfying, healthy meal in no time.
Now if you're like many people and you own an electric indoor grill, they you can easily cook up your favorite barbecued chicken anytime. For fun, make some easy, zesty chicken kebobs.
