National Chicken Month Recipes
Did you know that September is National Chicken Month? In years past that might mean only one thing, a dedication to delicious meals enjoyed with chicken. However, the resurgence of chicken ownership in the past couple of years might have you thinking about hens, maybe even your roosters but sadly, no…it’s still about the chicken we eat. Still, wouldn’t one of these be fun to have around?
I like beef and really love a great steak once in awhile even, but nothing is as versatile as chicken so a whole month devoted to chicken works for me; I love it the most! Casseroles, soups, salads, oven-baked, grilled and for me lately, dishes done in the pressure cooker…it’s evidence of just how versatile this meat is.
So I’ve teamed up with some friends to offer you an assortment of our best chicken dishes; whether you actually celebrate National Chicken Month or not (strutting around the yard in a chicken dance perhaps?); there is bound to be something in this mix that you love.
My contribution to our group effort this month is the recipe for Limoncello and Herb Barbecue Chicken Thighs. A local pizza joint serves a Limoncello Chicken Wing Appetizer that I loved and I decided I needed to re-create it at home and while I’m at it up it’s game and make it a meal. Slightly sweet and tangy with Limoncello, this barbecue chicken dish is perfect with herbs from the garden. Marinate the night before and cook them on the grill for a dinner that is so easy with results that are delicious.

I was torn when asked to contribute to a group featuring dishes for National Chicken Month because I have two strong favorites. The Limoncello is certainly my pick for summer when grilling rules but in the cooler months and we don’t shy away from the stove? Try this recipe for Spiced Honey Brushed Chicken Thighs. Fifteen minutes from start to finish and so good I eat one or two before walking away from the oven!
This contains sooooooo much healthy protein and delicious spices! I cannot wait to try making this with my mother 😀 I think the whole family would love it!!
