Easy Low Sodium Chicken Recipes

I love finding new (& delicious!) ways to cook chicken. Chicken is an inexpensive protein, is great for easy lunches and dinners, and is so versatile – you can cook it many different ways! We love making sweet & tangy low sodium apricot chicken, low sodium cashew chicken with rice, and low sodium chicken fajitas!

I recommend buying chicken that has a nutrition label on it, so you know the exact amount of sodium in the meat. Or check out your local butcher and ask them for low sodium options.

Ingredients You’ll Need

See the recipe card below for a full list of instructions and ingredient amounts!

  • No-salt-added chicken – getting good meat without added preservatives is key for reducing the sodium in this recipe. Store-bought chicken can contain “hidden sodium” from being injected with a salt solution. Buying all natural chicken (preferably one with a nutrition label on it) is key!
  • All Purpose Flour
  • Eggs
  • Low sodium panko breadcrumbs – I found these recently at my Whole Foods and I am obsessed! It can be so hard to find low sodium breadcrumbs that aren’t seasoned, and for 40mg of sodium per half cup, these breadcrumbs are a great low so option!
  • Garlic Powder: Adds a nice flavor to the breadcrumb coating.
  • Onion Powder: also adds a delicious and savory flavor to the coating as well
  • Italian Seasoning Blend: usually has thyme, basil, rosemary, parsley, etc. Make sure you get a no-salt-added variety.
  • Lemon
  • Parsley, for garnish

How To Make This Recipe

  1. Cut each chicken breast in half. Pound thin so the chicken is about 1/2 inch thick. Set the 6 chicken breast halves on a plate and set aside.
  2. Get the coating ingredients ready: on one plate add the flour. In a wide bowl, add the eggs and lightly beat them with a fork. On another place, add the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasonings, and mix well to combine.
  3. Take a piece of chicken, and dredge it through the flour. Flip and coat the other side. Next, dip the chicken to the egg mixture so it is coated on both sides. Finally coat the chicken in the breadcrumb and spice mixture so it’s evenly coated on both sides. Repeat with each chicken breast half.
  4. Heat a skillet (I used a cast iron pan) over medium heat, and add the oil. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  5. Add 2-3 pieces of chicken to the skillet (depending on how big your pan is, don’t crowd the chicken) and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Then place the chicken on a sheet pan and bake in the oven for 15 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  6. Once chicken is done baking, remove from the oven and squeeze fresh lemon juice over each cutlet, and top with parsley for garnish. Enjoy!
