You will need:

Chicken breasts cut in strips lengthwise (plan 1 breast per person.)
Taste of Gourmet's Salt Free Seasoning
Vidalia Onion Vinaigrette

Cut the chicken in strips and sprinkle liberally with the Salt Free Seasoning. This can be done the day before you cook the chicken for extra flavor! Or season just before you cook ‚ the chicken will still taste great!

Put a tablespoon of oil in a heavy frying pan. Heat the pan and then start adding a few chicken strips at a time to the pan. Shake and turn the strips to cook and lightly brown. The less oil you use, the tastier the chicken will be and the better it will be for you!

You can eat the chicken strips immediately, while they are hot! They taste fabulous plain or dipped in Honey Mustard or Cranberry Mustard or served on top of Calico Rice .
Or you can cook enough to eat hot for your present meal ‚ then marinate the rest of them in the Taste of Gourmet Vidalia Onion Vinaigrette! Marinated they will hold nicely for several days,; and give you a second meal later with no extra effort! And the flavor is fabulous!
