Broiled Herb-crusted Chicken Fillets

Herbs are a good source of flavor and have amazing health benefits. Dried herbs have a more distinct flavor, but if you want to use fresh herbs, double the amount in this recipe. Skip the salt or just add a pinch to make it a low-sodium meal. Serve with Tofu Kebabs with Cilantro Sauce and Brown Rice Salad.
