Tangy Chicken with Olive Herb Dressing

Tangy Chicken with Olive Herb Dressing

This recipe uses Castelvetrano olives which are quite different from other olives. They are meaty and buttery unlike the typical salty olive. Tangy Chicken with Olive Herb Dressing combines the Castelvetrano olives, parsley, garlic, and a squeeze of lemon with the schmaltzy chicken drippings. The result is a jammin’ chicken dinner that takes little effort to make.

Lemony Chicken with Artichokes and Gruyere

Lemony Chicken with Artichokes and Gruyere

When I was a kid, Pandeli’s was our family’s go-to neighborhood Italian restaurant. My favorite dish on the menu was a chicken with artichokes and melted cheese in a lemon sauce. I absolutely loved it and probably ordered it every time. Lemony Chicken with Artichokes and Gruyere is my interpretation of the Pandeli’s recipe that I so fondly remember. The restaurant may be long gone but the memories (and now the recipe) live on!

Gluten Free Drunken Noodles with Chicken

Gluten Free Drunken Noodles with Chicken

Gluten Free Drunken Noodles is one of those dishes that’s hard to resist and even when you’re full, you can’t stop eating. The wide noodles are a fun alternative to the thinner variety of rice noodles. Both the noodles and chicken are tender and absorb the sauce while the overall flavor has the perfect balance of sweet and tangy with a hint of heat.

Chicken Burgers with Garlic-Rosemary Mayo

Chicken Burgers with Garlic-Rosemary Mayo

Making a delicious chicken burger can be tricky because there isn’t much fat in ground chicken (unlike ground beef). Chicken Burgers with Garlic-Rosemary Mayo solves this problem in two ways: 1) by using half of the garlic-rosemary mayo as the chicken burger binder AND 2) by using all dark meat (or a combo of dark and white meat) ground chicken. Your burger will be juicy, full of flavor, and when sandwiched by the toasted gluten free bun slathered with the garlic-rosemary mayo grilled right on it…you have an instant home run!

Crispy Korean Fried Chicken Nuggets – (Gluten Free)

Crispy Korean Fried Chicken Nuggets – (Gluten Free)

If you’ve never dabbled in Korean cuisine, you’re in for a treat. The first time I made Crispy Korean Fried Chicken Nuggest – Gluten Free, my family went crazy. There was very little conversation during dinner because we were busy savoring each bite. Every piece of chicken gets perfectly crispy on the outside while remaining tender and juicy on the inside. But what makes this dish a home-run is the wonderfully balanced sauce which is sweet, tangy, and mildly-spicy.

Chicken Salad with Grapes and Toasted Pecans

Chicken Salad with Grapes and Toasted Pecans

My whole family loves this chicken salad. You know a recipe is really good when everyone goes back for seconds and thirds. It starts with the chicken being shredded instead of cubed which does wonders for the consistency of the chicken salad. Then in each bite there’s a nutty crunch from the toasted pecans combined with the sweet juiciness from grapes. And the little bit of garlic powder goes a long way to give the chicken salad that extra umph! Warning…this chicken salad is addictive.

Spice-Rubbed Chicken with Lemon-Shallot Sauce

Spice-Rubbed Chicken with Lemon-Shallot Sauce

The secret ingredient in Spice-Rubbed Chicken with Lemon-Shallot Sauce is the allspice which is included in the dry rub. When the allspice is combined with a popping lemon tang from the sauce, the resulting dish presents with an exciting and fresh new flavor. If you don’t use allspice in your cooking, try it as a change to the normal spices you use. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

I have been making Coconut Curry Chicken with Spinach, Mushrooms and Pine Nuts for years and it’s one of my all-time favorite recipes.

Spatchcocked Lemon Rosemary Chicken

Spatchcocked Lemon Rosemary Chicken

Spatchcocked Lemon Rosemary Chicken sounds like a fancy dish but this one I buy from Trader Joe’s in the refrigerated section where they sell other chicken products. Spatchcocked Lemon Rosemary Chicken is a great, simple weekday dinner dish. The chicken is pre-marinated and oven-ready. As the chicken cooks the skin gets deliciously crispy and the meat is infused with a wonderful lemony flavor. Weekday cooking doesn’t get easier than this!
