Quick and Easy Chicken Recipes

Here’s a collection of quick and easy chicken recipes that are family favorites. All are simple to make, full of flavor, and a lovely addition to your weeknight dinner table.

Family and Reader Favorites

One of our all-time reader favorites is Chicken Pathia, its tangy, slightly sweet, and perfectly spiced gravy wins hearts every single time. At home, our family favorite is Chicken Ghee Roast, a rich, aromatic dish we can never get enough of. I’ve also adapted my family’s traditional stovetop curry into a quick chicken curry in a pressure cooker, so we don’t have to wait for special weekends to enjoy it. It brings all the same authentic flavors while being ready in under 30 minutes.

Restaurant-Style Indian Chicken Dishes

You’ll also find some of our favorite restaurant-style Indian chicken dishes that are surprisingly easy to make from scratch. For family get-togethers, I can’t resist cooking melt-in-your-mouth Butter Chicken (a big hit with my kids) or a creamy, mildly spiced Chicken Korma that everyone loves. And if you’ve ever dined at Dishoom, you’ll know why their Chicken Ruby inspired me to create my comforting homemade version.

One-Pot Chicken Recipes

I love one-pot meals, fewer dishes, bold flavors, and dinner in no time. From spice-packed Chicken Fajita Rice Skillet to cozy Mediterranean Chicken Stew, these hearty recipes bring comfort and convenience to your table.

Appetizers and Snacks

Whether it’s a quick appetizer like Mediterranean Chicken Kabobs or Chicken Shashlik on skewers, crispy & saucy Indo-Chinese Dragon Chicken, or a spicy Cajun chicken burger, you’ll find plenty to choose from here. These tried, tested, and reader-favorite chicken recipes are sure to become staples in your kitchen.
