If you're bored of your current dinner recipes with chicken, this list of healthy chicken recipes is sure to add some excitement to your weeknight dinner rotation! From buffalo chicken chili to bruschetta chicken sheet pan and more, these are perfect for weeknight meals.
Here at The Nessy Kitchen, you'll find dinner recipes using a variety of different proteins- from ground turkey to salmon and more.
But, by far, I have the most recipes for chicken. (Though shrimp dinner recipes are certainly a runner up!).
Maybe it is because it is such a black canvas and pairs well with all sorts of flavors. Or the fact that we always have some tucked away in the freezer.
Regardless, I've rounded up several scrumptious chicken breast and chicken thighs recipes that are worth a try!
