Have you tried chicken patties? I just use chicken mince, grated carrot, finely chopped capsicum, chopped up broccolli and whatever other vegies are lurking in the fridge. Mix all with breadcrumbs. garlic and egg and a bit of milk, roll into flattened patties and fry in frypan. The little ones love them usually!

Chicken fingers - slice chicken breast into thick chunks, flatten slightly with a meat mallet, crumb and shallow fry till golden.
Serve with a sour cream, garlic and curry powder (small amount) sauce for dipping.
I serve them on couscous with the sauce over the top.

Chicken & Mushroom strudel
(Ill type the recipe out if you want it)

Chicken Filos
Chicken breast, shallots, julienned carrots, brie cheese, 4 sheets of filo pastry per chicken piece.
Butter and layer pastry (4 sheets) - fold in half to make a square, top with chicken then brie then veges, wrap up - brush with butter.
Bake in a moderate oven until cooked.

Fish Pie
Chicken and Leek Pie
Fish Parcels
Tacos - with lots of salad veges
Burritos - with sauted veges
Chicken Casserole
Lamb Chop Casserole
Lasagne
Grilled seasoned chicken with roasted veges
Tuna Patties (potato ones)
Tuna Noodle Cakes
* Sausage, chip (potato, carrot and sweet potato sticks), egg and cheese bake.

I serve everything with a really great salad or tons of veges.. if I want to dress the veges up I do a herb/cheese sauce and pour that over the top.
