101 Chicken Recipes For Lunch, Dinner And Everything In Between

Whether you have tons of time to cook or just 30 minutes, chicken can be roasted, fried, sauteed or turned into a cozy soup. Here are 101 recipes to choose from.

Farmers Market Chicken and Vegetables

This is a great choice for an easy, hands-off summer dinner. Simply roast boneless chicken breasts with any in-season vegetables you find at your farmers market or grocery store and toss with a savory blend of spices. It pretty much makes itself right in one pan.

Easy Chicken Curry

This chicken curry makes use of many basic Indian ingredients like onions, garlic, ginger, red chili powder, garam masala and green chiles.

The whole thing comes together in 30 minutes for a speedy weeknight meal.

Harissa Grilled Chicken

Similar to salsa or sriracha, harissa is a great condiment to serve alongside grilled meats and vegetables. You can make your own harissa to use as a marinade or side sauce for grilled chicken, or you can use a shortcut version by combining a store-bought jar of harissa sauce (Trader Joe's has a good one) with plain Greek yogurt, olive oil and tomato paste.

Quick-Griddled Chicken with Herbs

If you have a cast-iron pan, bust it out for this recipe. The secret of the cast iron is in how hot it gets and how well it retains heat, which means faster cooking and better browning. The griddled chicken with thyme, tarragon, oregano and sage pairs wonderfully with salads, pastas and more.
