This chicken recipe is made in one of my favorite machines; the instant pot. It’s delicious, it’s sticky and it’s just so good you’ll be making this over and over!

While you can use chicken in just about anything you make, I love also adding it to simple salads such as this quinoa salad with chicken and summery melon. I love the combination of sweet and salty here.

The funny thing about this tomato curry is that I had kilo’s of tomatoes leftover after a shoot and this tomato curry was the perfect way to use them all up. It was more or less a try out but it turned out so much better than I had expected!

Thai salad with Chinese cabbage

Another Thai inspired flavor bomb with thinly sliced Chinese cabbage and my favorite fruit; mango.

Initially made for dudefood; these delicious yakitori skewers are perfect on the barbecue or grill pan indoors.

Butter chicken burger

Sometimes when creating new chicken recipes, it can be as simple as throwing together things I have leftover in the cupboard and in this case that turned out to be a delicious marriage of flavors!

Normally a gado gado bowl is completely vegetarian but for this paleo version (with an almond based peanut sauce) I thought adding chicken would be a good idea.
