Low Fat Papaya Chicken Breasts Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Cut up whole frying chicken into pieces, or chicken breasts into halves. I like to use bone in/skin on because I think the meat is moister. I remove the skin and bones before I put the sauce over it all.
• Dredge the chicken pieces in flour, set aside. Sometimes I use chicken coating mix, just to spice this up a bit more.
• In a roaster or large casserole dish melt butter, dip the chicken in the butter and place buttered side up.
• Bake the chicken for one hour or until juices run clear and the chicken is tender.
• Carefully drain the fat out of the roaster, discard the skin and bones if necessary.
• For the sauce: Mix remaining ingredients in a saucepan (except the papaya) and bring to a boil.
• Once boiling and thickened add the papaya to the chicken in the roaster.
• Pour the sauce over all, and put back in the oven for 5 minutes.
• Let this mixture stand for 5 more minutes before serving, so the papaya can heat through.
• If you serve this dish with rice, double the sauce recipe.

Steps:

• Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion, garlic and ginger and saute until the onion is softened, about 4 minutes. Add the cumin seeds, coriander, fenugreek seeds, and paprika and toast for 10 seconds and then add the chicken pieces and cook until it is nearly done, about 8 minutes. Add the yogurt and finish cooking the chicken, about 2 more minutes and then stir in the papaya chunks. Serve the chicken with rice or rotis.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Lay a chicken breast flat onto your work surface. Use the tip of a sharp boning or paring knife to cut a pocket in the chicken breast through a 2 inch slit in the side. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Place the slices into the pocket of each chicken breasts, then sprinkle papaya slices with cinnamon to taste. Dip the chicken breast halves one at a time into the melted margarine, then the cracker crumbs.
• Heat 1 tablespoons of margarine in a skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook until golden brown on each side, about 10 minutes. Place browned chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, then flip each chicken breast. Continue baking until the chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of margarine in the same skillet used to brown the chicken over medium-high heat, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in the orange juice, pineapple, brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, cayenne, salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until reduced, about 30 minutes. Reduce the heat once more to low and continue simmering until the sauce is thickened. Serve the chicken breasts over the rice with the pineapple sauce spooned on top.

• Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. After it has become thick, add potatoes.
• Remove chicken from pot and cut into bite-size pieces and add to vegetable mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour mixture into a 9 inch deep dish pie plate and cover with pie shell. Make sure you crimp the edges of the pie shell to the plate so no juices spill in oven.
