Chicken Leg Quarters In Pepper Sauce
Braising the chicken uncovered lets the skin stay nice and crispy while the meat cooks gently, for a juicy result. Red bell peppers and tomatoes are both full of beta-carotene and vitamin C. They lend the sauce a subtle sweetness that's balanced out by just a hint of heat from chile flakes.
Stovetop Chicken Thighs With Brussels Sprouts
Cooking the chicken under a weighted skillet speeds up the process and results in beautifully browned skin. The mushrooms and Brussels sprouts bring health-boosting compounds, and a bright and punchy lemon-herb sauce with capers transforms the simple combo into something extra special.
Yogurt-Marinated Chicken Wings
Common spices come together with yogurt, lemon, and garlic to create a deeply flavorful marinade that's perfect for these wings, or whatever cut of chicken you prefer. (The seasonings also contain tons of antioxidants.) Serve these as an appetizer or with veggies on the side.
Dutch Oven Whole Chicken With Miso Butter
Steam roasting—cooking the bird in a covered pot—is foolproof and ensures you get moist and tender meat. As the chicken cooks, the juice slowly drips down on the vegetables, bathing them in rich flavor enhanced by butter infused with miso, lime, and ginger.
Caramelized Cabbage & Onion Soup
This healthy twist uses colorful red cabbage (higher in antioxidants than green) and a better-for-you (but still delicious) ratio of soup to bread and cheese. The onions and cabbage are naturally sweet, Worcestershire sauce brings deep savory flavor, and acidic balsamic vinegar balances everything out.
Roasted Garlic Soup With Chicken & Chard
This will be your new go-to soup for when you're feeling under the weather. Garlic has immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties; paired with the healing powers of chicken soup, it makes for a soothing, nourishing bowl (with 25 grams of protein to boot!).
