Hello friends. Do you have a favorite protein you like to cook with? Our family loves chicken (or turkey around the holidays) in all its forms. Whether in salads, sandwiches, soups, appetizers, main dishes, etc., chicken is a staple in our household that undoubtedly appears on our menu several times a week, as opposed to beef and pork. I love it because it is versatile and adaptable to various flavors, cooking methods, and recipes, it's economical (have I mentioned we have college students with hearty appetites?), and it's a healthier version, as opposed to red meats. Win-win!
Because we love you and we love chicken, we've gathered up our favorite chicken recipes to share with you. Also, enjoy some fun chicken facts below.
