You make these recipes from chicken breasts and even though you may not like the thought of that, they are great because they’re convenient and affordable for weeknight dinners. So, go ahead and leave the boring chicken behind and give some of these recipes a try.

Sun Dried Tomato and Basil Stuffed Chicken

This is one of the easiest recipes on the list. Simply cut a pocket into the chicken breast then stuff sun-dried tomatoes and basil inside. It’s a really easy way to make chicken that not only tastes great, but looks impressive too.

Chicken Power Bowls with Crispy Baked Garbanzo Beans

This is a take on Panera’s Power Bowls. They’re full of protein as they contain crispy baked garbanzo beans, hard-boiled egg, sliced sautéed chicken breast, salty pistachios, and tangy goat cheese. You’ll definitely feel full after eating this flavorful combination.

Creamy Chicken and Herb Skillet

This recipe is actually taking the Internet by storm, especially Pinterest. This is because it only takes 15 minutes to prepare and it tastes absolutely delicious, too.

Leek and Mushroom Chicken Skillet

Leeks and mushrooms are inexpensive items that you can easily throw into almost any dish. This one is both quick to make and delicious to eat. When making this you can even skip the flour coating, and use basil instead of tarragon, it will still taste great nonetheless.

Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet

Plain chicken breasts don’t have much flavor until you impart some pan-roasted garlic cloves into the skillet with them, then they develop a really deep flavor. Pair the chicken with some homemade mashed potatoes and you’ll have a great dinner that’s easy to make.

Chicken with Cherry Wine Pan Sauce

This recipe is a little more difficult to prepare than the others on the list. However, once it’s made, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how delicious it is. You don’t even need to pit the fresh cherries. In fact, you can even use frozen pitted sweet cherries.

Maple Pecan Crusted Chicken Salad
