3. Greek Yogurt and Herb Marinated Chicken Souvlaki Skewers

4. Zesty Lemon Garlic Chicken Biscuit Bake

A biscuit topping turns lemon-garlic chicken into a spoonable baked dinner. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

5. Savory Almond Flour Chicken Nuggets with Spicy Avocado Dip

6. Thai Peanut Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Lettuce cups hold a chicken filling with a peanut sauce, keeping the wrap crisp around the savory center. In a small bowl, whisk together the Thai Peanut Sauce ingredients: peanut butter, tamari, lime juice, honey, sriracha, and warm water until smooth.

Choose what to make

For food to pick up, try the skewers, nuggets or lettuce wraps. Choose the biscuit bake for a spoonable dinner, or the sheet-pan chicken when you want vegetables roasted alongside the main dish.
