chicken

When I don’t know what to make for dinner, I usually turn to my stock of chicken recipes. I hope you find something you like here!

Reader (and my!) favourites include this crowd pleasing one pan baked chicken with chorizo and tomatoes, a crockpot chicken gnocchi soup that’s a bit like Olive Garden’s and (my favourite!) chicken and butternut squash satay curry.

When I need something to serve to guests, I usually turn to this amazing Greek chicken and potatoes, these easy Greek chicken meatballs. or… Greek chicken gyro pitas! (AKA souvlaki!).

Looking for something super simple? You won’t go wrong with these favorite easy baked chicken thighs, which you can cook either in the oven or air fryer.

Got an air fryer? You have to try air frying a whole chicken!
