How to make chicken less bland without being unhealthy?!
I eat 8oz of chicken breast a day and it's starting to get boring, how else can I cook them so that they taste better without altering the nutrients too much!? I'm 16 and don't really have the time/experience to cook anything special, someone recommended adding hot peppers just to spice it up, is there anything else like that!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

I've always liked the following spices for chicken!. Unless otherwise noted, it's just fine to buy the little spice jars at your grocery store!. Most can be added to the chicken just after cooking it, though it tastes better if you add it during the cooking process (depending on how you make it - if you bake it, add a little olive oil and rub them on the chicken)!.
Rosemary
Basil
Dill
Garlic (this is also easy to prepare fresh - get a few cloves at the grocery store, peel them, and saute them with the chicken in a little olive oil)
Olive oil (the good stuff!.!.!.Rachel Ray's "evoo" brand is actually very good)
Crushed red pepper is also good, if you like spiciness!.
None of these negatively affect the nutritional value, and some (garlic, olive oil) actually have health benefits of their own!.
There are more, but these are the easiest!. Combine spices to your own tastes!.!.!.experiment, and have fun with it! Good luck! :)Www@FoodAQ@Com
