chicken katsu!

slice and serve with shredded cabbage and rice and tonkatsu sauce.

A roast chicken is so delicious but also easy.

Fried

This is delicious:

And this is good and very easy for a weeknight meal:

Chicken breasts, cover with pesto and sliced tomatoes (or no tomatoes). Bake. With 5-10 minutes left cover with mozzarella and melt. I serve with either roasted potatoes or angel hair and spinach.

I like this chicken shawarma recipe:

An easy way to add variation to the roasted/grilled chicken theme is to mix up the seasonings. I love having a couple of Penzeys spice blends on hand for quick and easy seasoning, but you could get the same effect by mixing your own if you prefer.
Some of my favorites -
Bicentennial Rub (looks like they've renamed it Revolution)
Galena St
Northwoods
Jerk Chicken & Fish
Trinidad Lemon-garlic

I like Claudia roden’s cookbooks. Here’s one of her recipes online:

You can buy store bought preserved lemons.

recipe?

Totally understand! I will give you the two I use -- one is elaborate (and I will take to an event), and the other is a modified low key version. I used store-bought puff pastry. Trader Joe's is getting near time to have it in stock again, but really any brand will work.

Chicken souvlaki

I love chicken curries. Either an Indian curry like this:

or a Thai green curry:

The homemade paste is excellent, but a purchased green curry paste works for quick weeknight meals

Do you have a recipe? Maybe I should have specified I am hoping to get some recipes. Googling chicken dishes and trying random recipes I find on the internet has not proven to be a good strategy for good meals!

For a special treat, Moroccan chicken pastilla/bastilla: flaky pastry, sweet and savoury notes, almonds and cinnamon.

I’m looking for some new chicken dishes to try. We eat a lot of grilled chicken breasts (with TJs soyaki as a marinade), and crispy mustard chicken thighs from Barefoot Contessa. I made Kung Pao chicken recently and it was good, not great. What are some of your family favorites?
Thanks.
