Those are some solid ideas. I'm still satisfied with a few options I have over here...

The average BBQ sauce... the sugars aren't good for you, but a single serving won't kill ya and goes great with chicken.

Gravy... I just started buying those ~$1 packets of gravy powder at the market, and they go great as a dipping sauce. Each entire packet has in between 0-5g fat, no sugar, but a good 1200mg of sodium. However, each packet has lasted me somewhere between 4-6 meals, so it comes out to being ~1-2g fat and 400mg sodium. Even if I wasn't watching what I was eating, I'd still probably do this, haha.


BTW, I used to grill chicken on the Foreman as well. I won't lie, it's an amazing device. So handy, and they chicken comes out the same way every time.. very consistant and easy. However, as long as I have the time, I nearly always bake my chicken breasts, and I LOVE IT. SO much more tender, as long as you get down the cooking just right. The average medium size chicken breast cooks through in about 17-20 minutes, and with a little practice, you'll find that sweet spot. I honestly don't mind eating it whatsoever without any sauce/dressing, but I do enjoy the gravy on top ahaha. Try it - I used to Foreman my chicken all the time, but baking it leaves all the juice inside and comes out great.
