These amazing green-green tacos have just enough spice and just enough flavor punch to have your family begging for more. They call for green chilies and green salsa (salsa verde). Salsa verde is not a spicy salsa, but it is packed with flavor. The green chilies will give the chicken a teeny, tiny bit of spice...but not too much to aggravate your taste buds. Plus, the giant … [Read more...]
Instant Pot Chicken Tikka Masala
Tikka Masala...in the Instant Pot?? You betcha! This is such a fabulous chicken dish...packed with flavor. It calls for a 'specialty' spice - garam masala. It's a very 'warm' spice and is commonly used in Indian dishes. It's a combo of cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and peppercorns. It's not spicy...but very very flavorful. And it balances well with the tomato sauce and … [Read more...]
Cashew & Curry Chicken Wraps
This flavorful chicken not only taste fantastical, it's super healthful too! With these wraps, you could use tortillas, whole wheat tortillas or lettuce cups. (I recently noticed my grocery store had new 'lettuce wrap' lettuce available...already pulled apart and neatly nested together for you.) This recipe calls for rotisserie chicken, but you could use slow cooked, … [Read more...]
Grilled Balsamic Chicken Salad
This might be the very best grilled chicken I've ever made. Why? Because of the balsamic vinegar marinade AND the balsamic glaze that I brushed on. I've found that when you grill chicken (and other meats) that the marinade soaks into the meat but then drips down into the grill. This does NOT happen with this glaze!! We do soak the chicken in a marinade, so the meat … [Read more...]

Skillet Caprese Chicken
This recipe is one of our new MyFreezEasy meals. And while I've written the directions below for making it as a "fresh meal," I would highly recommend freezing the chicken with the oil and balsamic because it will marinate beautifully as it thaws! These fabulous flavors combine in a skillet to make an amazing, fresh and 'light' weeknight dinner. Also, I highly recommend the … [Read more...]

Goat Cheese Apricot Stuffed Chicken
So we're going to classify this one as "budget gourmet." Because it's a gourmet flavor...done on a budget! This is actually one of our new MyFreezEasy recipes and it's ridiculously delicious. I had originally thought about doing a quick 'fry-saute' of the chicken before baking it. But...in the spirit of simplicity, I decided that a little salt and pepper on top was just … [Read more...]
