I love seafood but chicken breast is a big staple in our house. Right now my hubbie and I LOVE chicken nachos! Not sure if I should say thanks to my foodie friend, April for the recipe or smack her because I know they are going straight to my hips! LOL.

Definitely chicken. I love seafood, but since it needs to be eaten fresh, we don’t always have as much of it on hand. Chicken breasts can be stored in the freezer, so I stock up on them. My favorite of all time is Chicken Parmesan. I make it so often, and have made it for so many years, I really don’t use a recipe anymore! I’ll have to blog about it next time I make it. :) I’ll be sure to tag you on it.

ALANNA, chicken parm is definitely T’s absolute, last-meal-on-death-row favorite dish. Definitely blog about yours next time you make!

BETH, April raves and now you… I must try this dish soon.

Chicken is what we eat most often.

Here’s a recipe for “Chicken Dorito”

4 chicken breasts cooked and shredded
Cheddar cheese, grated (I use about 1/3 of a Lucerne large block from Vons)
2 cans cream of chicken soup
milk (1/2 a soup can’s worth)
1 can diced green chilis (you decide the spicy level)
1 bag Toasted Corn Doritos

Combine soup, milk and green chili’s in a sauce pan and cook until blended and warm.

In a 9×13 pan (or use a casserole dish or whatever) layer 1/3 amount of the Doritos, Chicken, Soup, and Cheese. Repeat twice ending with cheese on top. Cover and bake at 350 for 35 minutes.

This was my grandmothers recipe and I haven’t used a real recipe for it in years. You can’t really mess it up. It is sooo yummy!

HA HA! please don’t smack me. You know you wub me for showing you the wonderful world of chicken nachos. :) Our two fave chicken recipes right now are Kat’s Fancy Fast Chicken and Chicken Cordon Bleu (both on my blog). Chicken is most def my fave protein, especially since I’m allergic to seafood. : )

Oh yeah, one more. The italian stuffed chicken breasts are on my blog as well and I think they are really really good! And it’s a WW recipe so not too shabby for you either. : )

RACHEYPOO, dorito chicken huh? interesting! I’ll definitely have to try. I am guessing its not calorie friendly huh? ;)

APRIL, I keep putting Kat’s fast fancy chicken on my menu but for some reason it never gets made. I will make this soon esp with so many recs!

You can use low sodium soup and low fat cheese or just skip the cheese altogether. I usually just put it on top.

I’ve been a silent reader of your blog (love your down-to-earth but YUMMY recipes) until now – you requested recipes and I can’t keep silent b/c my favorite chicken recipe of all time is Sweet and Sour Chicken. It is so divine, I could eat it every night of the week (probably for breakfast, too!) and it is hands-down my husband’s favorite meal. Here’s the recipe:
