There are so many delicious elements to this copycat chicken recipe. Our tasters loved the combination of crispy chicken, ham, and Swiss cheese. But the element that makes it worthy of a spot in your recipe box is the homemade honey mustard sauce.

Grab your cast iron skillet and whip up this cowboy recipe. Once you've cooked your chicken breasts, add them to the pan with Southwestern classics like fire-roasted corn and tomatoes, black beans, and shredded pepper jack cheese. Serve the dish with rice and a generous sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

You don't need endless ingredients to make a delicious takeout-inspired stir-fry. Here, a quick hoisin and soy sauce becomes sticky and caramelized when sautéed with cubed chicken, bell peppers, and broccoli. Serve the finished stir-fry over rice or noodles.

In under an hour, you can have this chicken casserole prepped, baked, and on the table for dinner. Cubes of toasted bread soak up all the goodness of the buttermilk ranch sauce. As one reviewer raves, "This was great. I used whatever bread I had around and I think I used ranch dressing mix and extra sour cream, but definitely cooking it again."

Meet your new favorite chicken dump dinner. In a baking dish, add cubed raw chicken breast (there's no need to pre-cook!), pasta, and jarred sauce. Once they've baked together, top the dish with shredded cheese and a crispy panko breadcrumb mixture. Reviewers call this chicken dinner "easy" and "delicious."

Classic Marry Me Chicken is known for its rich cream sauce, sun-dried tomato flavor, and seared chicken breasts. We've kept all those favorite elements, but make it a comforting bowl of pasta with the addition of penne or rigatoni. Meal prep this ahead, and it will last in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Our readers love the flavors of chicken Parmesan, and here we've given the classic Italian dish a weeknight-ready sheet pan preparation. If crispy baked chicken couldn't get any better, the roasted cherry tomato topping adds juicy sweetness to each bite.

Save this dump chicken recipe for those weeknights when you need a delicious dinner with minimal effort. The entire recipe is mixed and baked in just one pan—making cleanup a breeze. Don't skimp on the squeeze of lemon at the end. It helps cut through the richness of the Alfredo sauce.

This sheet pan chicken recipe makes 8 servings of cheesy quesadillas. If you're making this for a crowd, dollop salsa, sour cream, and guacamole directly onto the pan so everyone can grab the perfectly sauced bite. We highly recommend sprinkling on sliced jalapeño peppers, cilantro, and fresh lime juice just before serving.
