Chicken is affordable, pairs well with a variety of flavours and cooking methods, and is loved precisely for that versatility. It’s an age-old favourite but, sadly, sometimes even favourites get a bit boring at times. That’s why we’re bringing you these 14 recipes that are anything but boring.

Nothing complements the subtle flavours of chicken quite like wine. Chicken thighs roasted in white wine, lemon and herbs is an easy and convenient way to enjoy weekday meals with chicken. Added bonus: this recipe only calls for ‘some’ wine, not the entire bottle… So yes, you get to sample it as you cook, because wine simply cannot be wasted.

This red masala chicken with balanced notes of cumin, chilli, garlic, ginger and masala makes for a great alternative to a traditional roast. 

Salty bacon makes this creamy chicken with lemon and rosemary so moreish, you’ll be craving leftovers. It’s perfect for a busy weekday dinner, as it’ll be ready in no time.

Tomato and basil is a classic combination, creating for the ultimate taste bud sensation. What could possibly be better? Tomato and basil chicken with creamy polenta, of course.
