As I look back at all that we've shared in this skillet dinners series, we didn't feature enough stir-fry meals. (Sorry about that!) To make up for it, we'll share more on the website soon. But for now, we've got this delicious Orange Ginger Chicken Stirfry. It's not your typical restaurant Orange Chicken because I didn't coat the chicken in breading. Partly because I just … [Read more...]
Chicken and Potato “Stirfry” on the Grill
Had to sneak a grilling recipe in here! If you don't have a grilling basket, I highly recommend that you get one before grilling season 'officially' resumes in a month or two. I use my grilling basket mostly for grilling veggies, but I also use it for 'grill-fry' meals like this one! Can you really do an entire meal on the grill?! Why yes. Yes you can. This is the … [Read more...]
Tex Mex Chicken Skillet
This is one that I can make and we'll polish it off. I'm raising a bunch of boys who adore Tex-Mex food and this is one of their faves. (Minus the oldest who still picks beans out of everything! As long as he is the one separating them from the rest of the meal, that's fine with me!) If you don't have leftover shredded chicken, you could also cut up some boneless skinless … [Read more...]
Cheesy Chicken, Broccoli & Rice Skillet Dinner
It's Monday afternoon and I'm back with another new recipe in this month's 31 Days of Skillet Dinner Recipes! This time it's the skillet version of the crazy popular Cheesy Chicken, Broccoli & Rice Casserole. Minus the canned cream of soup (which you can totally use, I just don't because of the dairy allergy/intolerances in the family!) It's super easy to make your own … [Read more...]
Sweet Potato & Chicken Sausage Hash
If only my stomach were a little larger. Because if it were, I would have tried to eat this entire skillet. All by myself. This Sweet Potato Chicken Sausage Hash is a phenomenal combination of sweetness, heartiness and warmth. It's a great, simple meal that will warm your tummy on these FRIGID COLD DAYS. {And yes, it's totally okay to stand over the skillet to keep … [Read more...]
Creamy Ranch Chicken Skillet Dinner
So this is seriously, slamming delicious. Like, gourmet restaurant delicious. I'm not sure if it's the homemade 'cream of mushroom' sauce {photo tutorial below} or the homemade ranch dressing mix. It's probably the combination of the ranch and mushroom flavors, all cream-ified together. Whatever it is, it's slamming delicious. Like Ka-Bam. Slam. Jam. Delicious. My … [Read more...]
Chicken & Stuffing Skillet Dinner
This recipe was originally sent to me by a reader and I couldn't help but try it right away! I've shared the original recipe as she sent it to me, but I'm also going to tell you how I adapted it to fit my family's dietary needs. The kids can't have dairy, so instead of the nacho cheese soup, I just used a half and half combination of milk and water to make 2 1/4 cups. Then I … [Read more...]

Pollo Asado with Rice & Beans
Can you forgive me? This happens to me every year and I adjusted my camera settings as best I could...but the silly time change doesn't only mess with your infant and toddler (who am I kidding, everyone's) sleep schedule. It messes with my work flow and having good light in the late afternoons. Now, there is no light in the late afternoons...so I ended up with this shot of … [Read more...]
King Ranch Chicken Enchiladas
So I've been wanting to make this for a very long time. But haven't had an occasion to because we don't consume much dairy because of allergies/intolerances among family members. When I learned that my friend needed a meal, this came up top of mind and boom, here it is. I have enjoyed many a King Ranch Chicken Spaghetti meal...but wanted to put 2 new spins on … [Read more...]
