My New Favorite Chicken

Those that know me, know that I'm kind of one of those girls who finds a recipe and sticks with it forever. I eat my mom's "Italian chicken" at least once every two weeks, usually once a week. It's not that I don't like new food, it's just that when you're cooking for one, doing fat camp (my secret code for Weight Watchers), and on a tight budget, it's a giant pain in the ass to make an entire dish, find out you don't like it or end up having to eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner until you're sick of it.

That being said, I was trolling fat camp boards the other day and found a recipe that's crazy yummy and beyond easy.

Ladies and Gents, Diet Coke Chicken:
chicken breast

1/2 cup Diet Coke
1/2 cup ketchup


Brown the chicken in a skillet coated with Pam. Mix ketchup and Diet Coke in bowl until smooth. Place chicken in deep baking dish and pour mixture over chicken. (Make sure your baking dish is small enough that the mixture will cover the chicken) Place in preheated oven at 375 and bake for 45-60 minutes. Let stand for five minutes then serve.

Very delicious--a tangy sweetness and very low in points too!
