Lime chicken soft tacos. Lime Chicken Soft Tacos Recipe - Allrecipes.com I have made this recipe many times and it's delicious! I modify it by cooking the chicken breasts the day before (sometimes in crockpot) and then the day I am serving it I put all the ingredients, including chicken, in a crockpot and cook it on low all day.
I have made that roast sticky chicken mentioned above too. It's wonderful too.
I made shrimp creole for dinner tonight, but since DH doesn't care for shrimp, I made chicken creole for him. (Just substitute chicken for the shrimp.) There's a good recipe here. I usually use canned stewed tomatoes instead of the fresh tomatoes and tomato paste. The sauce reduces a bit in the end, when it simmers.
My new kick is making stromboli once every couple of weeks, in order to use up small amounts of assorted leftovers. You may want to try it with diced, leftover, cooked chicken. There's an extremely easy recipe here, which I use as a guideline. I change out the filling, depending upon what I have on hand that I want to use up. It's very kid friendly and a great way to "hide" vegetables from them too.
Chey Dee - This shrimp recipe looks so good. I also went wandering around this website and found a really good creole seasoning recipe. I definitely will be making the Creole Shrimp or Chicken and also the Creole seasoning. Thanks for posting this site.

Quarter 4-6 red skinned potatoes, and toss them in with the chicken, stirring to coat them with oil. Add about 1/4 cup of fresh rosemary leaves, 1/2 C of white wine, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook for 15 minutes. Turn the chicken and stir the potatoes, and cook another 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
If you like, add four servings of broccoli to the pot, on top of the chicken and potatoes, and steam them for the last 6-8 minutes of cooking (longer if you like the broccoli more tender). Salt and pepper to taste.
I got all my missing ingredients this morning -- more garlic and the potatoes -- and will definitely be making this next week. Thanks for posting!
I've got a question for you, though. The white wine. I didn't buy white wine (I forgot). Can I use another liquid without ruining the meal, do you think? I have red wine, I have marsala wine, I have chicken broth, I even have water! Whatcha think? Or do I just have to suck it up and go buy white wine?
Publix is a grocery chain in the southeast but everyone should be able to access their Simple Apron Recipes. (Let me know if you can't). Just type in chicken or recipes with chicken. I love these recipes -- they are generally quick and easy to halve or double. All of the nutritional information is provided, along with side and dessert sections. (Publix.com).
We eat a lot of chicken breast too and I make chicken pot pie at least twice a month. I use the refrigerator pie crusts rolled up two to a box. I think they are Pillsbury. Let them sit out about 15 minutes before you try to unroll them.
My family likes chicken salad and chicken pasta salad. I always have a container of chopped cooked chicken breast in the fridge for pita pockets or tortillas or sandwiches or chicken tacos. It doesn't last long enough to go bad.

It's been a few days since you asked, but I hope you figured something out and didn't ruin the dinner!
Yes, you can substitute other liquids. Each of those listed would pull the overall flavor in a different direction. Since the alcohol in wine cooks off quickly, I'd start with perhaps 10% less of the broth or water, then correct as necessary at the end.
Water would be most neutral. Probably will need a little adjustment of the seasoning.
Chicken broth would pull the dish more towards a "country kitchen" taste, I would expect.
Marsala would pull it toward Chicken Marsala, of course, with that touch of sweetness.
Red wine would be more reminiscent of Coq au Vin, with a dryer taste than the Marsala.
Maybe you could make one each way and then report back!
I was never a fan, but an alternative is to eat it with sandwiches. My mom's recipe was mayo, butter, mustard, and pepper on white bread but Martha has a lot that I haven't gotten around to trying.

Good luck!
Oh, oh! Yes! I made this... I actually got the white wine. My husband was late coming home so it sat in the dutch oven for much longer than the recipe called for (over an hour). I just kept adding splashes of wine. The potatoes got soft and garlicy. The chicken stayed tender. The garlic got really soft and sweet and buttery. It was an absolutely delicious meal. And so easy!

Yes, I often find that the more wine you drink, and the more you splash on the food, the softer the dinner gets.
Happy weekend!
