Step 1 Preparing Honey Mustard sauce

Preheat oven to 400 F. Combine mustard and honey in a small bowl. Stir in grated orange peel and dill. Refrigerate until ready to use. If making only a few pieces then refrigerate in an airtight container and use when ready. This low-fat recipe stores for up to 1 week

Step 2

Line the baking sheet with foil. Place chicken on a sheet and coat both sides with a mixture prepared in step 1. Bake for 30 minutes or until no longer pink inside.

Alternate Step

Use skinless chicken breast and bake for a total of 15 minutes turning once at 7 minutes.


Monte Cristo Sandwich ( Low Fat Recipes )

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup fat-free (skim) milk
  • 1 tsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 oz low-fat Swiss cheese
  • 2 slices of reduced-calorie white bread
  • 1 tsp reduced-calorie margarine
  • 1 slice of Canadian-style bacon

In a shallow bowl combine egg, milk, parmesan cheese, and pepper. Set aside. Place Canadian bacon and swiss cheese on one slice of bread. Top with the remaining slice of bread. Dip the sandwich into the egg mixture, turning several times until as much liquid as possible has been absorbed. In small nonstick skillet heat margarine until bubbly and hot; add a sandwich, pouring any remaining egg mixture over the bread. Cook over low heat turning once, until brown and crisp on both sides. Serve immediately.
