Chicken Soup with Mini Meatballs
This traditional dish, sometimes called Italian wedding soup, successfully marries the flavors of meats and greens. The spoon-size turkey meatballs in this version make it a real kid-pleaser and hearty enough to be a satisfying supper.
Chicken and Sausage Paella
Chicken and rice make a great combination for entertaining, as they please almost every palate. For this dish, we jazz up the duo with chorizo, a Spanish smoked sausage that is a staple in paella recipes. You can also use the more familiar (and less spicy) kielbasa.
Herbs de Provence Roasted Chicken
My family loves roasted chicken. Not only is it a healthy and flavorful meal, but most of the time it's an inexpensive option for meals as it often feeds my family more than once. The best thing about roasting a whole chicken is that it's a blank slate for many flavor combinations -- you can create lots of variations. One of our favorite roasted chicken recipes is a simple one using dried Herbs de Provence, a blend of aromatic herbs from the southern hills of France that include a mixture of bay leaf, thyme, rosemary, chervil, oregano, tarragon, marjoram, and lavender.
Chicken and Italian Sausage Bake
My kids love Italian sausage, and when baked alongside a whole cut-up chicken, it infuses it with its wonderful flavor. The chicken is tender and succulent, and the garlic cloves, tossed into the roasting pan still in their skins, become soft and sweet and are perfect for spreading on toasted French bread or stirring into mashed potatoes.
