I am tired of eating chicken, said nobody ever! And the best part of cooking chicken, you don’t need to be a pro in the art of cooking. It’s possibly one of the most versatile members of your kitchen family. Put it in casseroles, toss it over spaghetti, pasta or linguine, bake it, throw it into soups or just do a good old-fashioned stir-fry. In short, eat it as your mood wants it. And just to make our lives a bit simpler, I have a go-to list of chicken meals for my tribe here!

Honey Dijon Chicken
Well, this one on Inquiring Chef is one of my best bets when I come home so tired that I am almost drooping to the floor.

Moreover, this recipe also qualifies as a ‘fridge crisper cleaner!’ Meaning tossing in the pan those veggies which have been languishing for some time and the outcome is delectable!
Lemon pepper chicken thighs
If you want to do this with breasts instead of thighs, it’s just as fine. Simple elements like lemon, paprika, garlic, onion powder come together to make a burst of flavors.
