Meat suggestions for the Frugal are Herbed Rotisserie chicken prepared and cut in half or quarters at the Deli. Chicken can be served without skin.
It accommodates meal restrictions for most guests. It is not by accident that at so many dinners the Roti is a rubber - I mean roasted - chicken.
Poultry Dark Meats (Chicken, Goose, or Turkey, are the best or juiciest.) I gladly give the white meat parts to my guests. Although I must confess, occasionally I do miss the wings, but just the flat parts.
At home, with gloves, the white meat might be (pulled off the bone and) served whole or sliced and served with a gravy, or saved, chopped or diced and used in soups, to garnish salads, or informally to make sandwiches. Eight pieces of cooked, cut, and sliced chicken cost less than two burgers. And you can still grill the slices if you would like.
A bed of spinach with a Roti of chicken placed upon it and drizzled with Oliver Oil, Italian, or a dressing of choice can make an impressive course.
Other suggestions for a Roti are Turkey Thigh served whole, or leg served whole or sliced. Get it pre cooked. Ok for your guest you can get Turkey Breast. You can have it deli-sliced. It can be re-heated and served with a micro-wave made gravy. It may be crusted with crushed flavored croutons.

Each may be served reheated or not. Add reheated gravy. You only need two more slices than you are going to plate. Packaged gravy white or brown can be made in a microwave.
It has been said, so on a dare I say it, “eat lean meat” could mean you get to be a vegetarian or vegan, if you are diabetic.
Piccata can be made from any thickly sliced chicken, turkey, veal, or Seitan (wheat based) or Tempeh (soy based) meat substitutes if you are vegetarian or vegan. Each can be sliced, pounded, sautéed, and served with a sauce. This is added because you already have that white meat chicken. And other than the sautéing part the dish sounds nice. You can serve it on a bed or angel hair pasta or Ramen.
When you have money or your store has a special Guinea hen or a boned Rock Cornish hen could be selected as a Roti. Love it when these too are cooked in-store. A pre-baked vegetable item can be obtained and allow one to meet a meal restriction and provide a main course.
A Main course platter is to be brought in warm from the kitchen. Formally, each plate is filled as served at table.
A single-serving dinner Roti is to meet all the criteria for sensible diet: 300 calories or less, no more than 30 percent of calories from fat, 1,000 milligrams or fewer of sodium, 15 grams or more of protein, less than 100 milligrams of cholesterol. The sides are to be fewer than ____ calories.
Go to local deli, see what it is trying to sell you that you like and looks good, ask to taste it, ask what is in it, then go home and make it, unless there is a sale or you can buy it with a coupon. Red wine can be served with a red meat main course. It may be omitted.
Suggested condiments can be listed as a
Dressing: Italian Dressing can be used on meat or cooked with it: call it vinaigrette if you must.
Gravy: Brown gravy in a packaged mix can be mixed with water boiled in a microwave. Look at the instructions on a package of Pioneer brand gravy mix. Gravy can be thickened by adding a little instant potato to it. White gravy may be made and thickened the same way. It and a can of cream corn or the basics for corn chowder, but that would lead us back to soups (Thank you Patsy.)
Sauce: Mustard, Classic or Organic, a large dollop can be placed on a tray of deli meats along with crusted breads, as can Worcestershire or Jellies. Know what is in your sauce. It can make you fat. You can get and serve all sauces on the side. An herbal Hollandaise sauce," "with an apple and sausage dressing," or "with mushrooms and giblet gravy," may be within your budget and diet to make for celebrations.
Pepper and Salt Holders can be provided informally, one per table, one per 5 people, or formally in individual sets. Yes there are items called salt cellars with spoons and pepper pots. Both of the items use to cost a lot. Pepper can sit to the left a shaker of salt.
Salt is sodium chloride. Sea salt is unrefined salt; table salt is refined salt, iodized salt is table salt that has been fortified with the mineral iodine. Kosher salt is salt processed to have flat crystals. Other salts to know monosodium glutamate (MSG), sodium bicarbonate: baking soda, and sodium propionate: a baking powder substitute. You can avoid using the latter salts at table. A spice shaker can be filled and used in lieu of salt. You can make one of your own. Use 3 times the amount of fresh herbs as dried herbs in recipes. Pick four to six items to mix.
1 Tbsp basil 2 Tbsp ginger (optional)
3 Tbsp garlic powder 6 Tbsp chili powder (optional)
1 Tbsp mace (optional)
1 Tbsp onion powder
1 Tbsp sage
1 Tbsp Thyme (optional)
Mrs. Dash ™ Seasoning may be used as a salt substitute. Lemon or vinegar can give food flavor without salt. Serving 1 teaspoon salt 2300 recommended 1500 or less.
