Chicken and Zucchini Foil Packs
I enjoy foil-wrapped dinners cooked on the grill, especially because there are no pots or pans to wash. You can try making chicken foil packs with most fresh vegetables you have on hand.
Pear Crumble
To test the ripeness of most pear varieties, gently press the pear near the stem. The pear is ripe and ready to eat if it is slightly soft. One exception is the Asian pear—it will still be firm to the touch but gives off a sweet, aromatic aroma.
Chicken Souvlaki
Loads of lemon and garlic give this easy chicken souvlaki a punch. Pair it with pita and tzatziki for a quick and tasty meal!
Chicken Tomatillo Soup
I had tomatillos to use and wanted to make something more exquisite than salsa verde. I combined two favorite recipes, added my own special touches and made chicken tomatillo soup. Feel free to add cayenne pepper or Tabasco sauce to spice it up.
Chicken Chiles Rellenos Alfredo
This recipe combines my daughter's love of chiles rellenos and my love of chicken Alfredo! To cut down on the spice level you could substitute Monterey Jack cheese for the pepper jack.
Air Fryer Chicken Cordon Bleu
Chicken cordon bleu, the famous ham-and-cheese-stuffed "blue ribbon" chicken dish, is typically labor intensive. By simplifying the method and using an air fryer, we've turned it into air-fryer chicken cordon bleu, which you can easily make on a weeknight in only 30 minutes.
Chicken Street Tacos with Corn Jicama Salsa
Here’s a light, speedy meal you can enjoy anytime. Preparation is so simple—there’s nothing to it. These chicken street tacos are quite tasty, and adding jicama to the salsa boosts the nutritional value. Win-win! —Priscilla Gilbert, Indian Harbour Beach, Florida
Chicken Parmesan Burgers
Tired of the same old boring burgers? This ground chicken Parmesan burger recipe will add a fresh, Italian twist to your usual burger night.
Pressure Cooker Red Pepper Chicken
Chicken breasts are treated to black beans, red peppers and juicy tomatoes in this southwestern supper. We love it served with rice cooked in chicken broth—and it would also make a great filling for tacos or burritos.
Turtle Cheesecake
With rich layers of chocolate and caramel cheesecake, crunchy pecans and a silky chocolate ganache topping, this turtle cheesecake is a showstopping dessert that's a labor of love. But they'll love you for it!
Caramel-Pecan Cinnamon Rolls
This caramel roll recipe is pretty rich and decadent, but the rolls would be even more luscious topped with scoops of vanilla ice cream. Another option is to cut a banana and scatter slices on each roll, as banana pairs beautifully with nuts and caramel. If you imbibe alcohol, try sipping a bourbon cocktail or espresso martini alongside a caramel roll. Or, simply serve the caramel rolls with your favorite type of coffee, whether it’s an espresso, latte or regular ‘ol drip.
Lemon Cheesecake Tarts
To make these cute tarts more quickly, add the filling to store-bought phyllo tart shells.
Chocolate Cherry Cake
While we love the combination of chocolate and cherry, we imagine this recipe would work with most cake mix flavors.
Turtle Cookie Cups
For a twist, use white chocolate chips in the cups and drizzle with white chocolate.
Cranberry Pistachio Biscotti
Biscotti dough is quite sticky, so you’ll want to generously flour your hands and work surface to make it easier to work with. A bench scraper (one of our favorite bread-making tools) is helpful for moving and shaping this dough. If your biscotti dough is just too unmanageable, put it in the fridge to chill for about 30 minutes and try again.
Three-Layer Chocolate Ganache Cake
It is likely because the ganache is dried out. Some baking experts say adding in an emulsifier like lecithin or a little bit of corn syrup can help.
