What You Need!

1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp.  pepper
4 small bone-in chicken breast halves (1-1/2 lb.), skin removed
1/4 cup  KRAFT Light Zesty Italian Dressing
2 cups baby carrots
1   onion, cut into wedges
1 can (14-1/2 oz.) fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided

4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA, 1/3 Less Fat than Cream Cheese, cubed
2 Tbsp.  chopped fresh parsley

Make It!

MIX flour and pepper in shallow dish. Add chicken; turn to evenly coat both sides of each piece. Gently shake off excess flour. Heat dressing in large nonstick skillet on medium heat. Add chicken, meat-sides down; cook 5 to 6 min. or until golden brown. Turn chicken; add carrots, onions and 1 cup broth. Cover; simmer on medium-low heat 20 min. or until chicken is done (165°F).

MEANWHILE, cook rice as directed on package; spoon onto platter. Use slotted spoon to remove chicken and vegetables from skillet; place over rice. Cover to keep warm.

ADD cream cheese and remaining broth to skillet; cook on high heat until cream cheese is melted and sauce is well blended, stirring constantly. Simmer on medium-low heat 3 to 5 min. or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Spoon over chicken and vegetables; top with parsley.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Makeover Savings
We've taken a family favorite and made a few changes that will save fat and calories. We browned the chicken in KRAFT Light Zesty Italian Dressing instead of oil, used PHILADELPHIA 1/3 Less Fat Cream Cheese instead of whipping cream and didn't dip the chicken in eggs before coating in flour. All these changes will save you 50 calories and 19 g of fat per serving!
Substitute
Substitute 8 bone-in chicken thighs with skin removed for the chicken breasts. Prepare as directed, cooking until chicken is done (165°F).

" The overall flavor was good, but I thought it was just a little bland. Maybe it is because I didn't have the Zesty Italian and subbed a different type of vinaigrette. I added some garlic & thyme but it still lacked something. I would try it again using the Zesty Italian. "
