Easy chicken recipes?

I've got 5.5 weeks to lose this weight and I'm planning meals ahead. I need something EASY that I can make any night of the week with chicken breast. Got any faves? PLEASE share!!! Thank you!

If you like salads, you can grill up a bunch of chicken breasts in advance of the week, dice them up, and toss with your favorite mix of greens/fruit/nuts. I usually season the chicken with some salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and thyme. You can just as easily give them a more southwestern flavor with some cumin and chile powder. Cooked chicken can keep in the fridge in a nicely sealed container for a week.

I'm not sure if you're avoiding any particular foods,  but another easy dinner than my FI loves is chicken quesadillas. Whole wheat tortillas, some grilled/sauteed veggies, a bit of cheese, and some shredded grilled chicken (with the above cumin/chile powder seasoning) makes for a quick (and 1 pot) meal.

I use a handful of recipes from preventionrd.com, she does some great stuff and the crock pot chicked recipes are really good especially the chicken tacos and they are really easy and quick!!

This is great ladies. A lot of these are what we do at home too: chicken tacos, chicken and brown rice, Panko chicken nuggets, stirfry and salads -- but you've got some nice twists in there that make things more exciting. Thanks for sharing and keep 'em coming!!
