Chicken and Poultry Recipes

Chicken is one of my favorite ingredients to cook with—it’s versatile, family-friendly, and works with just about any flavor profile. This collection brings together some of my go-to chicken recipes, from quick meals to slow-simmered comfort food.

When I’m in the mood for something bold and tropical, I make Hawaiian Chicken, or I keep things fresh with my Greek Chicken Marinade. For crowd-pleasers, it doesn’t get better than creamy Crack Chicken Casserole or spicy Buffalo Chicken Dip. When I want something cozy and full of flavor, Jambalaya or my homemade chicken soup recipe always hits the spot.
