Kevin and I are still going strong on the eating-healthy dinner kick. I, unfortunately have not lost much weight. Let's just say that Kevin has stopped snoring that tells you something ;) This recipe is another kidney-friendly meal and it was originally for Grilled Sesame Chicken but we didn't feel like grilling so I just made this on the stove in a cast-iron skillet and it was delicious! We made this with a side of fresh green beans and jasmine rice.  Ingredients: 1 tbsp sesame seeds 2 tsp ground ginger 2 tbsp honey 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce 1 tbsp sherry wine vinegar 2 large chicken breasts, sliced in half to make four thin slices Directions: Combine the first five ingredients in a small bowl. In a large plastic bag, add the five ingredient mixture/marinade as well as the thin slices of chicken. Let sit in the refrigerator for a few hours.  Spray a cast iron skillet with PAM or cooking spray. Over medium heat, let the chicken cook for about 7-10 minutes per side.  Transfer
