Chicken is a true staple — endlessly adaptable and always welcome at the table. This collection brings together dishes that highlight its versatility, whether you’re roasting a whole bird for Sunday lunch or whipping up something quick with boneless thighs on a weeknight.
We focus on recipes that respect good-quality, slow-grown chicken — the kind that delivers proper flavour and holds up to bold marinades, gentle poaching, or high-heat roasting. From comforting casseroles to crisp-skinned grills, these are recipes you’ll come back to time and again.
Golden roast chicken with crisp potatoes, buttered carrots, seasonal greens and a gravy made from the cooking juices.
A whole roast chicken makes a generous family dinner with a little care over seasoning, cooking and resting. Lemon, garlic and thyme complement the bird, while its cooking juices provide the foundation for the gravy. Choose the conventional oven method or the Ninja Foodi alternative below.
