Low-Sodium Chicken Recipe?

I'd like to make a chicken recipe for dinner tomorrow, but my Dad's watching his sodium intake. Any low low sodium chicken dishes?Low-Sodium Chicken Recipe?
Chicken Enchiladas








PREP TIME 15 Min


COOK TIME 30 Min


READY IN 45 Min





INGREDIENTS


1 tablespoon butter


1/2 cup chopped green onions


1/2 teaspoon garlic powder


1 (4 ounce) can diced green chiles


1 (10.75 ounce) can LOW SODIUM condensed cream of mushroom soup


1/2 cup sour cream


1 1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken breast meat


1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided


6 (12 inch) flour tortillas


1/4 cup milk








DIRECTIONS


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a large baking dish.


In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the green onion until tender (about 3 to 4 minutes). Add the garlic powder, then stir in the green chiles, cream of mushroom soup and sour cream. Mix well. Reserve 3/4 of this sauce and set aside. To the remaining 1/4 of the sauce in the saucepan, add the chicken and 1/2 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese. Stir together.


Fill each flour tortilla with the chicken mixture and roll up. Place seam side down in the prepared baking dish.


In a small bowl combine the reserved 3/4 of the sauce with the milk. Spoon this mixture over the rolled tortillas and top with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly.Low-Sodium Chicken Recipe?
I like to brown boneless chicken breasts in a little olive oil, til they're golden and a little crispy. Drain, then slice them into pieces about 1/2'; thick and return them to the skillet.





On top, I pour a 50/50 mixture of plain yogurt and humus. You can buy ready-made humus or put cooked chick peas, garlic to taste, lemon juice, and tahini in the blender.





This is a great dish served over rice and the only sodium would be whatever's in the humus.
