Protein Power 10-Meal Kit: Creamy Garlic Chicken

 Wow - didn't realize it's been awhile since I last posted on my Tastefully Simple Blog.

I decided this morning that I wanted to try some different recipes - getting tired of fixing the same ole chicken and ground turkey meals.  So, I picked out a few meals from our Protein Power 10-Meal Kit.  As I make them, I'll post them here.

Tonight's dinner was Creamy Garlic Chicken.  Guess what!  No substitutions were made.  Very delicious.  Although, I did not pound the chicken breast pieces.  Probably should have - they wouldn't have taken as long to bake in the oven.

Now, here's the ingredients:

1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 6 pieces, pounded thin

3/4 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt (I used sour cream)

3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

1 1/2 Tablespoons Garlic Garlic Seasoning

3/4 teaspoon Seasoned Salt

This takes only 15 minutes to assemble and about 25 minutes to cook.

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Place chicken in a greased 13x9-inch baking dish.
  2. In small bowl, combine remaining ingredients.  Spread evenly over chicken.
  3. Bake until internal temperature of chicken reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read food thermometer, about 20 minutes.  (Note:  since I didn't pound the pieces, it took longer to bake - about 5-8 minutes).  Turn broiler on HIGH (I only have one temp for my oven).  Broil, until bubbly and golden brown on top, about 2-3 minutes.
The recipe booklet says to serve it with a low-carb green salad.  We had broccoli with butter and seasoned using Seasoned Pepper.

You can make ahead and freeze by placing the chicken in a quart freezer bag.  Place the Parmesan cheese, Garlic Garlic Seasoning, and Seasoned Salt in a quart bag.  Place both bags in a gallon freezer bag.  Seal well, label, and freeze.  Thaw completely.  Continue with step 1.

I was going to let you know what it comes out to point wise on WW but I'm not finding how to login on the desktop.  So, I'll let you know later.


Update:  The WW app doesn't have the Tastefully Simple products but similar products were noted in the recipe and the points came out to 5 per serving.
