Est. cooking time: 45 mins


Ingredients
1/2 pound Tyson® Fresh Bnls, Skinless Chicken Breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 pound Tyson® Fresh Bnls, Skinless Chicken Thigh Cutlets, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt, divided

1 large lemon, juiced
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 1/4 cups baking mix
2/3 cup 2% milk



Directions
Place chicken in a clean plastic bag. Add flour, half of the salt and half of the pepper and shake well to coat. Shake off excess flour and set aside.

Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Sauté chicken pieces until golden on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add onion and sauté 3 more minutes. Add broth and scrape to remove any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Add carrot, celery, lemon juice, bay leaf, thyme and remaining salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, partially cover and reduce heat. Simmer until chicken and vegetables are tender, about 20 mintues.

Meanwhile, combine baking mix and milk; mix until smooth and drop from a tablespoon on top of the stew. Cover and simmer until dumplings spring back to the touch, about 15 minutes. Spoon into bowls and serve.

Cooking Tips
Some lower fat alternatives include using a low-fat baking mix, nonfat milk and all chicken breast meat.

Tangy Chicken Breasts


Lemon juice, mustard and honey combine in a tangy-sweet glaze that complements these tender chicken breasts.

Estimated Times: Est. preparation time: 15 mins
Est. cooking time: 35 mins


Ingredients
8 (4-6oz.) fresh boneless skinless chicken breasts, (about 2 pounds) cut in half
6 ounces frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon crushed dried sage leaves
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon crushed dried thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard



Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F.

Rinse chicken breasts under cold water and pat dry with paper towels; place in shallow baking dish. Combine remaining ingredients in small bowl. Pour half the sauce over chicken and bake for 20 minutes. Turn chicken and pour remaining sauce over top. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or more until chicken* is no longer pink in center.

*NOTE: Chicken Test for Doneness (per Washington Fryer Commission)

No matter what method you use for cooking chicken, the most accurate test for doneness is a meat thermometer. Since chicken is never ready to be served unless it is done, always be sure it is completely cooked. Whole or bone-in chicken should reach an internal temperature of 180°F, and boneless chicken should be cooked to 165°F.
Other indicators for doneness include:
1) A fork or toothpick can be inserted with ease.
2) The juices should be clear, not pink.
3) Bone joints move easily.
