LENTILS WITH CHICKEN (WW)



Lentils With Chicken (WW) image

I really liked this dish - good and filling. It is 8 points plus/serving. Recipe source: WW magazine (not sure which issue). I used red lentils as that is what I had, but I am pretty sure brown lentils will hold up better in this recipe.
