Then add this collection of simple and healthy chicken breast recipes to your menu plan now!

---

It’s time to start meal planning again. And, if you’re like me, you’ll never leave the grocery store without purchasing a fresh chicken.

Did I mention I’ve always been a big chicken fan? Cook it however you want, including fried chicken, chicken “adobo”, or chicken curry, and I won’t say no. (Now you’ve got me hungry, hehe)

But, of all the chicken parts, I like the chicken breast since it is the healthiest. White meat (chicken breast) has a lower cholesterol content than dark meat (legs and wings).

If you’re health-conscious, the chicken breast section without the skin may be preferable for you.

 

How can you prepare chicken breasts in the healthiest way possible?

Cooking chicken breasts in the oven or a stir-fry with veggies is the healthiest way to prepare them.

Place the portions in a baking pan, drizzle with olive oil, and top with garlic, lemon, carrots, or whatever else you desire.

Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake until golden brown.

 

Alright! Let’s get to those delectable, nutritious chicken breast recipes right now!
