Mike's Super Skinny Chicken Dinner
MMOBRIEN @cook_2891564
This evening I charged my youngest students with making the lowest calorie, lowest carb and lowest fat meal they could think of. However, it had to be high on flavor. The dried herbs definitely took care of that! Anyway, a long story short - THEY NAILED IT!
Seasoned chicken cubes cooked in a T-Fal Air Fryer [with 1 tbsp oil to 2 pounds of chicken cubes] and a flavorful baked vegetable melody! Per serving, each delicious dish is less than 400 calories with a side. Excellent work kiddos!

Mike's Chicken Margarita Breast Sandwiches Mike's Chicken Margarita Breast Sandwiches
Typically I'd have my culinary students grill these chicken breasts but it's way too cold out tonight. Or, I'd have them broil them but my new oven crapped out and won't be fixed until tomorrow. With that, they were forced to pan sear then throw the breasts in to the Salamander to melt the cheeses and heat the tomatoes. Anyway, these massive deli sandwiches were just as juicy as they were delicious! Great work again kiddos! Great photos too!
