Recipes using chicken and turkey as the main ingredient
Tastes like chicken. Chicken is an incredibly versatile ingredient in all recipes.
Chicken thighs (dark meat chicken recipes) in particular, are often overlooked but are so moist and also hard to mess up.
Chicken breast recipes (light meat chicken recipes) cook fast because of the lean meat with little to no fat.
Most chicken recipes can be used interchangeably.
Chicken breast cooks faster so is better seared and added to the sauce in the last couple minutes of cooking. On the flip side, chicken thighs will need to cook longer in sauce.
There are not a lot of turkey recipes in my repertoire just yet. But one turkey recipe that I love is this easy turkey breast recipe for a small Thanksgiving dinner.
Recipes with turkey kielbasa are a favorite of mine because turkey kielbasa is easy and versatile to use. Check out Turkey Kielbasa and Bean Soup or Turkey Kielbasa with Zucchini.
Favorite dark meat chicken recipes include easy pan fried chicken thighs, Spanish Chicken and Rice, Dijon Cream Chicken, easy roast chicken thighs, and Cracklings or Roasted Chicken Skin.
Favorite light meat chicken recipes include easy Chicken Breast with Cherry Tomatoes, Chicken Paillard, Chicken Tenders with Lemon Butter, and Feta and Spinach stuffed Chicken.
