90+ Ideas For a Pound of Chicken

Damn Delicious

Fact: the pound of chicken sitting in your fridge or freezer doesn't always turn into the most exciting dinner, but it is helpful to have on hand. If you need some serious inspiration to shake up your routine, look no further than this ultimate list of chicken recipes. Some of them are perfect for speedy weeknight dinners (five-ingredient chicken piccata), and others are ideal for weekend projects (spicy butternut squash ramen with chicken and mushrooms, anyone?). From one-pan meals to pastas, casseroles, crispy tenders, and much more, there's sure to be a recipe you can't wait to try.
