TIP
TIP: Thin-sliced chicken makes portions appear larger and is a convenient solution for quick meals with big flavor. Lifestyle Tip: Stock up on nutritious snacks to munch on while waiting for dinner. Sliced fresh fruits and vegetables, popcorn, rice cakes, reduced-fat cheeses and pretzels are all lower-fat choices.
Step 2
Mix all the Chimichurri ingredients and set aside in a covered glass bowl. Let it sit for 12 hours, mixing occasionally to bring out the flavor and aroma of the ingredients.
Step 3
In a saucepan or on a grill, brown the chicken breasts on both sides. Spoon the Chimichurri on top of the chicken and serve.
Step 4
If you wish, decorate with tomatoes and asparagus.
