I get a box of frozen chicken breast at Costco and throw 3 small pieces in the oven at lunch (and reheat what I don't eat at lunch for dinner). I'm going to be honest when I say the chicken tastes kind of gross (especially considering it's unseasoned AND I'm eating it with raw spinach), but it's the most cost effective way of doing it. If you have fresh chicken, however, there's nothing wrong with pan-frying it and throwing some Mrs. Dash seasoning on top (it has no salt).
Monday - Wednesday, I consume about 1,700 calories, and Thursday - Saturday I consume around 3,000 - 3,500. Sunday is a wildcard because I'm usually hung over.
i use the same chicken but ive actually found it easier to eat by just thawing it in warm water for 20 min or so, cut it into strips then pan fry it with just a few drops of olive oil to keep it from sticking. it stays really juicy this way instead of drying out. then i just eat it with wing sauce, which is not too healthy, but i use really hot sauce so i end up using less than half a tbsp for 2 chicken breasts, so the fat/salt/etc is pretty negligible.
