If you have a crock pot or slow cooker these are super simple and really tasty:
Favorite Barbecue Chicken
4 to 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 bottle (16 oz.) barbecue sauce
Put chicken into greased slow cooker. Pour bbq sauce over chicken. Cover and cook on high heat 4-6 hours or on low 8-10 hours. I shred mine 1 hour before serving and have shredded chicken sandwiches. To shred it you use 2 forks and pull the chicken apart...it's really tender and it practically falls apart for you.

Marinate the chicken in Italian Dressing and top with shredded parm. cheese and bake in the oven. Make red skin potatoes with a little olive oil and italian seasoning and add some of the cheese to that as well (bake in oven too), so good :)
Edit:
Recipe: (I keep the potatoes and chicken separate and use boneless chicken breasts)
4 bone-in chicken pieces (1-1/2 lb.)
1-1/2 lb. potatoes (about 3 med. potatoes), cut into thin wedges
1/4 cup KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing
1/4 cup KRAFT 100% Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
PREHEAT oven to 400掳F. Place chicken and potatoes in 13x9-inch baking dish.
TOP with dressing; sprinkle with cheese and Italian seasoning. Cover with foil.
BAKE 1 hour or until chicken is cooked through (180潞F), removing foil after 30 min. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
outdoor grill, throw either of two no mess
If you have a gorge foremen grill steaks take only 5 Min's and chicken breast only take 3 to 4 Min's . On the chicken breast use Italian dressing to dip it in yummy. You can also bake your chicken with rice or get that box in the store that you bake very easy. good luck .
My all time favorite easy meal is to marinate some chicken pieces or boneless breasts in 2 cups of italian dressing and 1/4 cup of lemon juice. Poke a few holes in each piece, and the chicken will marinate in about fifteen minutes. Then you can grill it, or bake it, or sautee in a pan.
Thin steak also works good for fajitas. You can use this recipe for chicken or steak, but I just slice it up in strips, then cook in a pan with taco seasoning I buy from the store. It's cheap and easy, and it's great, because all you have to do it cook the meat, and then everyone can add their own toppings. Good luck!
Grill it with a little olive oil and lemon juice. you can add chopped garlic and parsley if you want. serve it on rice or pasta.
boil the chicken with salt after done shred it
cook and type of pasta after cooked
drain mix in a large bowl with the shredded chicken mix a can of drained mix veggies and ranch dressing
makes a great chicken salad with tortilla chips or saltine crackers
