1 whole chicken breast, skin and bone removed1 cup chicken stock (fat free/low sodium)4 slices of low fat or fat free swiss cheese slices2 tablesponns of margarine1 tablespoon flour2 tablespoons dried oregano1 tablespoon ground black pepper1 teaspoon salt

Pound the chicken breast thin (layer it between two pieces of plastic wrap then pound with the flat side of a meat tenderizer, can of food, etc). Cut into four portions. Mix the flour, salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the mixture. Heat the margarine in a skillet - once melted, brown the chicken pieces in the butter - 2-4 minutes per side. Once the chicken is golden on both sides, pour in the chicken broth, add the oregano. Simmer for 8 minutes. Crumble two slices of the swiss cheese into the 'sauce' and stir to combine. Continue to cook another 2-5 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Top each chicken piece with half a slice of swiss cheese. Serve over rice or pasta.
