Does anyone have any good chicken recipes?

We love our chicken we have it every night but Im running out of ideas so I need some new recipes and we dont like mushrooms (just a texture issue)Does anyone have any good chicken recipes?

Lazy Gourmet Chicken

2 陆 - 3 # fryer, cut up or 2-3 pounds legs/thighs/breasts





Combine all ingredients except chicken in a large, tightly lidded saucepan and bring to a boil. Add chicken pieces and coat each well. Keep covered and reduce heat, simmer 35-40 minutes, basting several times along the way.Does anyone have any good chicken recipes?
Chicken breasts





rinse skinless boneless chicken breasts, slice them thinly, like patties, bread with flour, salt and pepper, dip each in egg or buttermilk, and then dredge it in Panko bread crumbs. fry it on both sides until golden and crisp. Pour over some fresh made spaghetti sauce, or use your favorite jarred variety, Sprinkle it with fresh Parmesan, and bake it in the oven for 20 minutes at 350 This will taste similar to veal Parmesan, and makes excellent sandwiches the next day.





Sweet and sour chicken like Chinese take out








Buy a pre-made sweet and sour sauce, a fresh pineapple, and some chopped green peppers to make it taste like you cooked it all day. Bread boneless chicken pieces or wing drumettes if you don't mind eating with your fingers and getting messy.


for breading, use corn starch instead of flour, and add salt, pepper, powdered garlic, and powdered ginger to taste. Dredge chicken pieces in corn starch mixture, fry in peanut oil until golden brown, pour off excess oil, pour in the sweet and sour, and add pineapple chunks, and par-boiled chunks of peppers, just tender, but still crisp. Let it simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, and serve it with rice.





The corn starch breading will gel up and soak in the sweet and sour sauce. The longer you simmer, the thicker the breading will get, so you may need to add water or additional sweet and sour sauce if you cook too long.





Rotisserie Chicken








Get a bottle of Sweet Chili Sauce for Chicken. I use Flying Horse Brand out of Thailand. There are many brands available at Chinese Supermarkets, or in the Oriental section of most grocers. It is very inexpensive, 99 cents to $3 per quart. One quart will do three chickens.





Salt the inside and outside of your chicken to get the juices flowing, Skewer it, and start it turning over heat.





As soon as the chicken starts to bubble, baste it with this sauce. Continue basting every 10 to 15 minutes until it is golden and crispy. You can serve it with more sauce for dipping.





This makes a chicken very similar to Chicken la'Orange





Once you try this, you will be suggesting it to all your friends, just like I have been doing for 7 years running.
This is one of my favorites %26amp; very easy to make!


Enchilada Chicken





Chicken breasts


Mrs Dash Southwest Chipotle seasoning


cilantro (chopped)


enchilada sauce (mild, medium or hot) your preference

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees


Use a skillet that you can transfer to the oven. Season chicken w/Southwest Chipotle seasoning. Spray pan w/olive oil %26amp; sear chicken on both sides over med-high heat until golden brown. Remove from heat and add about a teaspoon of enchilada sauce on top of chicken. Sprinkle on cheese then add the cilantro to top of cheese and put in oven to finish cooking chicken and melt cheese. Depending on the thickness of the chicken it could be 5 to 20 mins.

Tandoori Chicken - you can get the powder from the shop. Just add lemon juice to it and paste it onto the chicken - take the skin off first- and put it in the oven and youre done - have with rice chips or salad or all three or neither - whatever you want!!
we like to cut boneless chicken into bite size pieces, and saute until done, pour a jar of your fav. spaghetti sauce over chicken and heat through, cook spaghetti or other noodles and add to sauce. pour into a serving dish and sprinkle on cheese.
