The Best Chicken Recipes
It’s no secret that I love to cook with chicken! As most of us moms do!
First, chicken is affordable. With the price of groceries these days, you can count on chicken being one of the more inexpensive types of protein. When you compare it to fish and steak, chicken usually comes out on top as a delicious and more affordable option.
Second, everyone in the family loves it. There usually is not any hesitation whenever I ask if everyone wants chicken for dinner. Not everyone is a fish person…and not everyone is a beef person…but most people love chicken. And that’s why I love creating and developing chicken recipes for every palette.

Is Chicken Healthy?
Chicken is often seen as a healthy option when it comes to choosing what type of protein to cook with. And when you pick the right kind of chicken, that’s exactly the right choice! It’s a great source of protein and other nutrients.
When you cook with skinless chicken that’s going to be the kind of chicken with less fat. Therefore, boneless chicken breasts are usually the optimal option when cooking healthy chicken recipes.
What Is The Healthiest Way to Cook Chicken?
The healthiest way to cook chicken is to avoid unnecessary fats and oils. This is why I often use my air fryer when making things that would normally be unhealthy (like Chicken Tenders for example). Using this type of cooking method prevents you from things like deep frying in fatty oil.
Baking, grilling, and pan-searing chicken are also cooking methods that are highlighted below in the list of chicken recipes.
How Long Does Cook Chicken Last In The Fridge?
You can keep most cooked chicken dishes in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. And most of my chicken recipes make great leftovers for lunch or dinner later in the week!
Make sure to read the recipe instructions for any sort of specific storage or reheating instructions.
