No Recipe Required – 10 Ways to Fix Chicken on the Fly
From: Tiffany @ eatathomecooks.com/
Does this ever happen to you? You know dinner is going to be chicken because you’ve got a pack of boneless breasts/thighs/tenders or bone-in legs/breasts/thighs.
But you have no desire to think up a recipe to turn them into dinner.
You don’t need a recipe. You just need some ideas.
Here are 10 ways (plus a few cooking methods) to get you started.
Cooking method 1: Slow Cooker
This is my favorite way to cook. Throw it in the crock and bam – hours later, dinner is ready. Obviously, this method works best if you have plenty of time.
Cooking method 2: Oven
Thawed boneless pieces should take about an hour to cook, less if they’re thin (like breast tenders). Bone-in pieces I give an hour and 15 minutes or more if they are thick.
Sprinkle or Pour on Flavor
1.Salsa – Any type. Try black bean and corn or chipotle lime or another style for a fun variation.
2.Bbq sauce – Any type.
3.Salad dressing – French, Catalina, Italian etc.
4.Stir fry sauce, orange sauce, mandarin sauce etc.
5.A sweet (like honey or jelly) with a sour/tart (like ketchup, cocktail sauce, chili sauce, bbq sauce) use up the bottles in your fridge.
6.Taco seasoning – shred and serve in tortillas
7.Spaghetti sauce – add mozzarella or provolone slices during the last few minutes of cooking
8.Crushed tomatoes/diced tomatoes/tomato sauce with Italian seasoning
9.Jar of gravy
10.Cream of…soup, add onions and/or other veggies
