8 Best Low Fat Chicken Dishes
5. Broccoli and Cheese Stuffed Chicken
There’s already cheese in it, so you can cut down on the frying and bake the dish instead. Of course, you can add other veggies too in the stuffing to customize the dish as per your tastes and preferences.
6. Thai Chicken and Pineapple Stir Fry
Use skinless chicken breasts in this dish, and you can alter the amount of spices you put, depending on how savory and spicy you like your food. You can enjoy it with Jasmine Rice.
7. Skinny Chicken Fajitas
This is again a low-cal dish that can be combined with veggies and low-cal dips to make it more interesting and yummy. It’s perfect for a late-night meal to avoid too many calories and to avoid unhealthy snacking too.
8. Skinny Chicken Pesto Bake
Your baked chicken breasts can be made yummier by topping with basil pesto, tomatoes and other veggies. While ideally you should be adding mozzarella and Parmesan as well, you can make few alterations to the dish and use them in moderation or avoid them totally by using other low-cal dips or dishes on the side.
So now you have plenty of low-fat alternatives to look at when you plan on eating chicken. Always remember that it’s not necessary to reduce the amount of chicken you eat. Instead, it’s important that you reduce the calories in the sauces and the side dishes with the chicken to make the overall meal low-calorie. Also, some kinds of chicken dishes automatically become low-cal when you roast, grill or bake them, instead of frying them.
