All great suggestions ... I would encourage you to go as low sodium as possible, meaning avoid bottled marinades and dressings unless they are low-sodium. Simply cutting the "eating out" will help tremendously, but sodium will directly affect the fluid around your heart.
Another great idea for adding flavor, especially to chicken, is balsamic vinegar. You can also get punch from lemon as someone said, and even reduced sodium soy sauce. Fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme are great because they pack LOTS of flavor and you can include them in your marinade whole and discard if you like before cooking.
Other places for great recipes might be the South Beach or Weight Watchers forums, as people on these diets tend to eat an inordinate amount of chicken! Most of my coworkers are doing one or the other.
