Easy chicken recipes

We love chicken because it's quick and easy to cook and infinitely versatile. Whether in an easy chicken pasta dish or a simple stir-fry, we have all kinds of easy chicken recipes for you to try.

Creamy coconut and sriracha meatballs

Fragrant chicken meatballs are served with a creamy coconut sauce spiked with sweet and spicy sriracha. Lean and healthy, it's the perfect midweek winner.
