Ingredients
4 3oz pieces of chicken breast20 cloves of garlic, peeled & lightly smashed3/4C chicken broth, fat-free, reduced-sodium 1/4C Caesar Dressing, light2T Parmesan Cheese, grated
Directions
1 breast + 5 cloves = 1 serving

To peel cloves:
Lay flat of knife blade on side of clove.
Carefully (but with force!) hit the blade with the heel of your hand, cracking the clove open.
The skin should easily come away from the clove.
Cut off bottom and any blemishes.

Heat large skillet on medium high for 1 minute.
Add chicken and garlic.
Cook 2 minutes, then turn chicken over.
Stir in broth and dressing.
Bring liquid to rolling boil, turn heat down to medium.
Cover skillet and cook for 15 minutes
Turn chicken over and cook for 15 minutes.
Let stand 1 minutes.

This is really good with roasted veggies: carrots, potatoes, butternut, rutabagas.

The leftover broth-dressing is tastey by itself as a soup-itizer for the cook!
