Chicken Recipes

There's a reason chicken is the go-to choice for home cooks everywhere: When you're putting together dinner, you want something tasty, endlessly versatile and relatively inexpensive. Goodness knows, there are thousands of chicken recipes out there. It's a culinary chameleon, equally at home in rich, aromatic Indian butter chicken, home-style Southern <a href="/recipes/chicken/fried/popular/">fried chicken</a>, or in a bubbling pot of <a href="/recipes/chicken/dumplings/popular/">dumplings</a>. It helps that chicken is so darn convenient. You can buy it whole (perfect for <a href="/recipes/chicken/baked-roasted/whole/popular/">roasting</a>), cut into pieces, or even packaged into your favorite parts (<a href="/recipes/chicken/thighs/popular/">thighs</a> or <a href="/recipes/chicken/baked-roasted/drumsticks/popular/">legs</a> for dark-meat lovers, <a href="/recipes/chicken/breasts/popular/">breasts</a> for those who prefer white meat). Or cut to the chase and buy a pre-cooked <a href="/recipes/chicken/rotisserie/popular/">rotisserie bird</a> - there's nothing easier than shredding the meat to add to enchiladas, soups, or casseroles. No clucking around: This bird is a home cook's best friend.
