Easiest Chicken Recipe Ever



Recommended Posts

hi allegbe

i agree that using the crockpot makes things the very easiest.

i do that recipe ' date=' the italian dressing (whidh i don't think i would like) i pour a can of light no fat mushroom Soup. over the chicken ummm ummm. i guess you could pour anything, Soup or whatever over the chicken.< /p>

the truth is - i'm afraid to try new recipes. afraid i wouldn't like the italian dressing - maybe i'll be brave and try it though when i'm all grown up - btw i'm 58 now :lol:

My mom used to make this a lot when I was younger :) It always comes out GREAT! My personal favorite way to eat chicken is grilled on the george forman. I'm a pro at it now so 99% of the time it comes out moist and tender.

Thanks for sharing :)

This recipe was great! We loved it and it was moist and delicious! We did the same thing with a turkey breast the next day. When it was done..I shredded it and added liquid smoke and franks hotsauce. My family ate it on Buns like barbeque..it was awesome!

That sounds really good! I will try this soon! Did you use breasts? I ave been using the boneless skinless thighs since my VSG. More moist for me.

Everyone says a must is to get a blender- I say add a crockpot onto that list.

Actually you might also want to purchase a Blender Bottle from www.blenderbottle.com

They also sell them at some Vitamin stores. Great to have, blend well (will blender ball) and no leaks.

Take a pack of chicken breast (like four) frozen or thawed. Put them in a crock pot. Pour a regular size bottle of Italian dressing (fat free) over it. Cook on low for 5 hours. Tada!

Can you have this during the puree stage

I just pulled out my old Rival Crockette 1 quart crockpot from my garage sale to be box. I put two b/s chicken breasts in it this morning, no liquid, and seasoned with my fave Nature's seasonings. It is sooo tender. just about ready to have some. Guess I will keep it. Since my surgery i have normally been eating b/s thighs cuz they are more moist, and these are the first breasts I have had that have been moist and juicy.

Oh my gosh...... I am salivating! All of the tweaks and ideas sound fantastic! This is definitely "do-able" on my preop diet, as well as providing moist flavor options for postop.

Thanks everybody!

Two pork tenderloins, one chicken bullion, small jar salsa. Cook on low all day. Drain 1/2 the liquid, shred with fork, add a taco seasoning packet. Voila, Chalupas! Serve like tacos.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
