I don’t know about you but I’m a little sandwich obsessed at the moment. This is a Mexican inspired number thus, it’s a ‘torta’. Full of grilled chicken, chipotle mayo, guac, slaw and cheese. It’s a dream.
Mexican Style Chicken Torta
One Pot Honey Mustard Chicken Casserole
This one pot casserole is like a warm cosy hug from your favourite old friend. The New KEEN’S Honey Mustard Chicken Meal Base makes it so, so simple to make too. I love to serve this comforting dish with a slice of rye sourdough but any bread you love will work – you want something to mop up the delicious sauce with.
Coconut Curry Chicken Wings – Baked not Fried!
Look at that golden crunch! Can you believe these chicken wings are baked rather than fried? They have the most magical crunch and the best flavour thanks to a very simple 5 ingredient marinade.
Peanut Curry Noodles with Ginger and Chicken Meatballs
The peanut curry soup base pairs so delightfully with the light and fragrant meatballs. You can even make the meatballs in advance for a quick week night meal. this isn’t a big bowl of soup, the soup base creates a sauce that the noodles poke out of and coats everything in deliciousness.
Healthy-ish Chicken Nachos with Chipotle Cheese Sauce
There’s a lot of things about these nachos that make them a healthier choice than the regular variety. Baked wholemeal tortilla chips (or corn if gf) rather than fried chips, the added green veggies and wholesome chicken thigh topping. There’s also a cheese sauce that’s the ish part because it makes the cheese go a long way and adds that gooey stretchiness you want in nachos, with about 1/2 the actual cheese. But still some cheese because, oh god, cheese will be the last animal product I give up if I ever actually go vegan.
Mini Chicken Burritos with Tomato Rice and Avocado Crema
These lightened up burritos can be made as pictured, a smaller wrap, or as a bigger more traditionally sized burrito – depending on how hungry you are. The mini burritos are also ideal for little hands if you’re cooking for kids!
Buttermilk Baked Chicken
I love baked chicken, it’s such a simple thing to throw in the oven and is easily accompanied by salad, slaw, steamed or roast vegetables. i’ve included a list of possible sides to have with this tender and flavoursome chicken below.
Crispy Sesame Chicken Pieces
My tahini obsession has reached new heights recently and this chicken is the best thing to come out of it. I’ve never used tahini to give sesame flavour to Asian dishes before and I have no idea why because it’s amazing. The marinade coating this chicken is insanely tasty and the chicken gets golden and crispy so it’s a very good time.
STICKY LEMONGRASS CHICKEN THIGHS ON CRISPY LETTUCE
This is such a simple and delicious dish, it makes a yummy light dinner just as is or with rice and extra steamed or stir fried vegetables on the side. It’s also really easy to prepare and you’re using a cheaper cut of chicken – yay for money saving!
AUTUMN CHICKEN TAGINE WITH ALMONDS AND APRICOTS
First things first – you do not need a tagine to cook this, it works fine in a deep sided pan with a fitted lid so don’t go scrolling past this deliciousness because of your equipment woes. And it is so delicious, spicy sweet and salty flavours mix with delicious textures to make this the perfect autumn comfort food. And it’s easy.
