Recommendations for dips for chicken
Hi - I am going back to work next week. I was going to bring chicken strips with me and wanted to know if anyone had any recipes or recommendations for dipping sauces for the chicken so that it will not be dry when I eat it. I eat chicken salad too, but wanted to have just chicken as well to take to work? Thanks.
I use BBQ sauce or else I have a very hard time, too. The one I use has 45 calories for 2 tablespoons, so not bad. Not sure how much I actually get, I just pour a little on the chicken, heat it up, and eat. Most of it is left in the plate when I finish, but otherwise, chicken is very hard for me. And, I don't like dark meat so much ;(.

SERIOUSLY ? I read these lame answers and was struck that the study saying obese children distinguish tastes significantly LESS just might be true !
OK - fat free incredibly tasty peanut sauce ( takes one minute ) - thai taste peanut sauce mix..... fat free powdered milk ( 1/4 package ) .. coconut extract ..... boil peanut ,mix... add slightly diluted milk w cc extract ... serve
fat free bearnaise .... vodka sauce ... 4 cheese sauce ..garlic herb and pesto sauce . all of the above make w supermarket sauce envelopes ,fat free milk and butter buds . Boil , thicken then add ff milk ( diluted and mixed w water ) and powdered butter buds which are ( fat free )freeze dried real butter solids that make anything taste like U added real butter . Add a bit of vodka also to the vodka sauce after its off the stove to bring out the taste :)
You can also make an excellent cheddar cheese type sauce using 1/2 of a three for a dollar walmart macaroni n cheese box sauce mix... add some powdered milk , fat free cheese slices and U have a high protein very tasty cheez-wiz substitute for say steamed broccoli dipping ...
good luck ! I personally love my oven fried chicken beast fingers made with extra crispy shake n bake !
The trick is NOT to overcook them ... I've noticed that may overweight people eat ridiculously overcooked " hockey pucks " . When meat springs back to the touch .. its DONE .. take it out of the oven and let it REST and finish cooking for like seven minutes . The juices will go back int o the meat and it will be tender and flavorful as opposed to stringy and dry ... chicken fingers take like 5 minutes to bake to doneness in a 350 degree properly preheated oven ... because they are so small .
