Answer 1

chicken marsala is about my favorite italian food if it is done well, marinated in the right wine and cooked with the skin still on, probably shrimp has less calories but not if cooked in lots of butter so be careful

Answer 2

shrimp and clam marinara: if its well done you'll like this

shrimp scampi: Shrimp in a garlic butter sauce

:

fettuccini with chicken and broccoli in alfredo sauce: you got it

chicken marsala:  sauted chicken in a kind of sweet wine sauce

chicken francaise: lightly breaded chicken in a lemon butter sauce

chicken piccata: sauted chicken in a wine sauce with capers

chicken pizzaiola: Sauted chicken in a tomato based sauce with oregano and/or basil

chicken floretino:  sauted chicken in a sauce with spinach - it may or maynot have tomatoes

Which one you want is up to you, and it is difficult to say which will have to most calories as retaurants are very good at hiding butter and oil in their sauces.  Shrimp and chicken b*****s are pretty similar in calorie density but the portion of chicken is apt to be larger because of the cost.  The pizzaiola will be the most familiar to youbut I'd go for the francaise.

Answer 3

Clams taste similar to mussels.  

Fettuccine with broccoli and chicken is just Chicken Alfredo with broccoli.

Chicken Marsala is on the sweeter side it is made with Marsala Wine.

I am not sure about the other four dishes.

The chicken Alfredo with broccoli probably would taste the best, with chicken Marsala in second.  Although the Alfredo probably has the most calories.

Answer 4

try Cioppino.....basically a great marinara sauce with alot of herbs, fresh parsley, white wine with shrimps, clams, mussels, sometimes cod & calamari.......comes with garlic bread...yummy!!!

Chicken Florentine is one of my favorite recipe. I eat it with brown rice.

How about salmon, tilapia or halibut? They are very good and healthy.
